01 — Roots
Our foundation
Our goal is to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ through the vehicles of worship and prayer — to bring believers into a deeper relationship with their Savior, and to bring others to the knowledge of the saving grace of Jesus Christ.
Every song we sing, every scripture we share, every prayer we pray at The Branch is drawn from the Word of God — nothing added, nothing of our own invention. We simply want to help people know Scripture, and through it, know Jesus.

Who we are
The Branch Ministry, Inc. is a house of worship, a house of prayer — a place where Jesus Christ is worshipped, Scripture is prayed, and community is strengthened.
A note on who we are
The Branch is a ministry, not a church. We were formed to serve believers and seekers alike through worship, prayer, and fellowship — standing alongside local churches, not in place of one.
Prayer does not fit us for the greater work; prayer is the greater work.
— Oswald Chambers

How that takes root
Worship and Prayer
At The Branch we follow the Harp and Bowl model of prayer found in Revelation 5:8 which describes heavenly creatures where each of them "had a harp" and "were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints." Our prayer times will vary in style, giving room for the Holy Spirit to lead us.
Our worship flows from the model of David's Tabernacle found in Amos 9:11-12 "On that day I will raise up the Tabernacle of David, which has fallen down, and repair its damages; I will raise up its ruins and rebuild it as in the days of old," and in Acts 15:16 where James refers to Amos 9:11-12. The Tabernacle of David was a foretaste of New Testament worship. Joyfully we ascend the hill of the Lord and stand in the holy place. (Psalm 24)
Prayer Spaces
We prioritize our connection with the Lord by emphasizing prayer as a cornerstone of Christian living. At The Branch, you will find intentionally consecrated on-site spaces for contemplative prayer, where Scripture and a heart for worship help us seek the Lord at various active prayer stations. Some stations are interactive, others are more reflective, but each is designed to encourage connection with the Lord.
“My heart says of you, 'Seek his face!' Your face, Lord, I will seek.”
Psalm 27:8
Strengthening Relationship and Reaching Others
For those who already know Jesus as Lord, we want more, a fuller closer walk with Him. We desire to model Philippians 3:10 "That I may know Him and the power of His resurrections, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death."
We desire to strengthen unity in the Body of Christ through modeling Ephesians 4:13 "Til we all come to the unity of the faith and the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ."
We long for those who don't yet know Jesus as their Savior to hear the Gospel plainly through our times of worship, prayer, and fellowship. We believe what Jesus said in John 14:6 "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
