Faith that Arises. Love that Reaches. Service that Transforms.
Arise Community Church is a disciple-making church, planting in Bad Axe Michigan in 2025.
Welcome to Arise Community Church!
We are a community of everyday people following Jesus together, learning what it means to love God and love our neighbor in real and practical ways. Arise was born out of a simple desire: to equip and multiply disciples of Jesus, helping people experience a faith that arises—a faith that is alive, growing, and deeply rooted in Christ.
At Arise, our mission is to be a people who have a: Faith that Arises, Love that Reaches, & Service that Transforms. We believe Jesus changes us from the inside out, and that His love compels us to live beyond ourselves. Whether through worship gatherings, microchurch communities, or serving alongside our neighbors, our aim is to bring hope and renewal where it’s needed most.
No matter where you are on your faith journey, you belong here. We invite you to come as you are, discover the life-changing power of Jesus, and join us in the adventure of seeing our community flourish. Together, let’s arise to a faith that is alive, connected, and on mission.
We believe that when we rise in Jesus, our faith comes alive and we worship God with our everyday lives.
We believe that when we move toward our neighbors in love—we bridge divides, heal wounds, and create connections that can reshape communities.
And when we serve our city, we reflect the heart of Jesus, meeting real needs and bringing hope to places longing for it.
Join us in this movement, igniting the Gospel message of Christ throughout the Thumb of Michigan.
Isaiah 60:1-4
“Arise, Jerusalem! Let your light shine for all to see.
For the glory of the Lord rises to shine on you.
2 Darkness as black as night covers all the nations of the earth,
but the glory of the Lord rises and appears over you.
3 All nations will come to your light;
mighty kings will come to see your radiance.
4 “Look and see, for everyone is coming home!
Your sons are coming from distant lands;
your little daughters will be carried home.
We'd love to get to know you!
