Some questions to ask before joining a non-denominational church in Plano, TX

At Grace Plano church, we are one of the many diverse churches that welcome everyone from all walks of life. We are a faith-based, Bible-following, non-denominational church that desires to spread the gospel far and wide.

What is a non-denominational church? 

As a non-denominational church, we do not classify ourselves as any one particular Christian denomination, but our beliefs remain resolute; we base our faith on the irrefutable Word of God, the power of the Holy Spirit, and the resurrection and eternal life that we will one day experience if we place our lives in the hands of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

If you are contemplating joining a non-denominational church, here are some pros and cons to help guide you.

Pros

We are flexible with adapting our views on what ‘church life’ is to accommodate the ever-changing needs of society. We understand that times change, and traditional ways and methods of how we do church should change too so that we don’t become stuck in rigid, outdated ways of serving the community. 

If you are looking for a more open and free approach to the way you view and practice your faith, then a non-denominational church might be the right fit for you. We embrace diversity and welcome your questions about life and faith, as we walk with you on your faith-filled journey. 

Cons

A non-denominational church can often lack the resources available to larger church organizations such as the assistance provided to communities through mentorship and pastoral care, Bible teachings, and learnings which often form part of a Bible school or Bible Institute, as well as additional financial assistance and resources needed to grow and expand the church and its resources. 

Freedom of opinions and viewpoints can at times lead to disagreements and disputes which may not be so easy to objectively solve as all opinions, questions or viewpoints should be treated equally.
