Frontier Bible Community
Living as the church (ekklesia-those called out from the world to belong to Christ and His Kingdom).
A Snapshot
Frontier Bible Community is a newly forming network of house churches in Tucson, AZ. We are a family of disciples learning to follow Jesus in the real world. Around tables, in homes, through shared adventures, and throughout our communities, we grow through Scripture, shared life, and intentional discipleship, forging followers of Jesus who live boldly on mission wherever God sends them.
About Frontier Bible Community
Frontier Bible Community exists to bring together people who live as the ekklesia, or the called-out ones of Jesus Christ, showing His Kingdom together in daily life.
We are committed to restoring a biblical view of church as a discipleship community that helps each other grow, not just a weekly event or something to consume.
We believe the church should be incarnational (present in people’s lives), not just attractional (focused on attracting others). Instead of only inviting people to join us, we want to go to them.
We aim to bring Jesus’ presence, truth, and love into our neighborhoods, workplaces, homes, and everyday relationships. Like Christ, we want to live among others, share life, help meet their needs, and show what God’s Kingdom is like through what we say and do. Our goal is not to gather a crowd for a church service, but to be a community whose lives show the gospel wherever we are.
By sharing regular practices of worship, spiritual growth, work, stewardship, and mission, we want to become followers of Jesus whose lives show His wisdom, authority, and love in every part of life. Our goal is not just to gather large groups, but to help each other become disciples who live differently, together.

Our Mission
FORGE DISCIPLES
Disciples aren’t made casually—they’re forged through truth, obedience, shared life, and real-world challenge. We reject shallow belief and pursue deep, lasting transformation.
LIVE SENT
Every believer is a missionary. Mission isn’t a program—it’s a way of life. Your home, work, and community are your mission field, and to live sent is to carry the message and authority of Jesus into everyday life with purpose.
NEVER SETTLE
We refuse passive faith, comfort, and compromise. We pursue holiness, obedience, and mission—pressing on with grit to follow Jesus no matter the cost.
Our Core Beliefs
THE AUTHORITY OF SCRIPTURE
We believe the Bible is the inspired, inerrant, and sufficient Word of God, the final authority for all faith and life.
GOD
We believe in one God, Creator of the universe—eternally existing as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—perfect in holiness, love, and power.
THE PERSON AND WORK OF JESUS CHRIST
We believe Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man, who lived a sinless life, died for our sins, rose from the dead, and now reigns as Lord.
SALVATION BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH
We believe salvation is a gift of God’s grace, received through faith in Jesus Christ alone—not by works—resulting in forgiveness, new life, and reconciliation with God.
THE HOLY SPIRIT
We believe the Holy Spirit indwells every believer, empowering a transformed life, guiding in truth, and equipping for ministry and mission.
THE RETURN OF CHRIST
We believe Jesus will return personally and bodily to judge the living and the dead and to make all things new.
THE CHURCH
We believe the church is the body of Christ—the gathered people of God—called to worship, grow in discipleship, and live on mission together.
THE ORDINANCES
We believe Jesus gave baptism and the Lord’s Supper as visible signs of the gospel. Baptism publicly identifies a believer with Christ in His death and resurrection, and the Lord’s Supper is a reminder of His sacrifice and our unity in Him.
DISCIPLESHIP & MISSION
We believe every follower of Jesus is called to grow in obedience, become more like Christ, and make disciples. As we are formed by Jesus, we are sent to live as His witnesses in word and deed.
THE VALUE OF EVERY PERSON
We believe every person (born or unborn) is created in the image of God, worthy of dignity, love, truth, and equal protection and justice.
IDENTITY, MARRIAGE, AND SEXUALITY
We believe God created humanity in His image—male and female—and that our identity is a gift to be received, not redefined. We hold these convictions with humility and grace, seeking to love others well and inviting all people to find their identity and hope in Jesus. We believe that we are called to a life of purity and that sex is to be confined to marriage--a covenant between one man and one woman.
Our Ethos
SHARED LEADERSHIP
How we lead!
We believe the church is strengthened through servant-hearted leadership that equips mature believers to disciple, lead, and serve according to their God-given gifts. We multiply leaders who empower others to live on mission.

BIBLICAL SIMPLICITY
How we order our lives and church!
We believe Scripture is our authority for faith and life, shaping how we live, gather, lead, and make disciples. We choose simplicity over performance and people over programs, creating space for authentic community and everyday mission.

KINGDOM LIVING
How we live together!
We live as a multi-generational family shaped by the values of God’s Kingdom. Through shared life, we help one another grow in faith, grit, and obedience to Jesus, believing everyone has something to give and something to learn.

PIONEERING MISSION
We follow Jesus with courage and resilience, embracing challenge, adventure, and hard work as opportunities to grow in faith, wisdom, and grit. We live boldly through generosity, sacrificial service, and everyday witness, engaging our culture with truth and love as we carry the gospel into our communities and beyond.
OUR RHYTHMS
At Frontier Bible Community, we believe church is more than a weekly event—it is a family of disciples following Jesus together in everyday life. Our rhythms are built around these four simple expressions:
ROOM AT THE TABLE
Come and explore.
A place for conversation, relationships, questions, and discovery.
Room at the Table is a welcoming space for conversation, shared meals, and honest questions.
Whether you are skeptical, curious, new to faith, or simply looking for community, there is a place for you here. It is the front porch of Frontier Bible Community—a relational environment where people can encounter Jesus and begin meaningful relationships.
HOMESTEAD COMMUNITIES
Belong and become.
A place for family, discipleship, spiritual formation, and mission.
Homestead Communities are house churches and are the heartbeat of Frontier Bible Community. These smaller spiritual families meet throughout the week in homes and everyday spaces to share meals, study Scripture, pray, care for one another, and live on mission together. This is where discipleship, belonging, and spiritual growth primarily happen.
THE GATHERING
Celebrate and be sent.
A place for worship, encouragement, equipping, and shared identity.
Each week, our Homestead Communities come together as one in local parks and community spaces for worship, teaching, prayer, testimonies, and encouragement. The Gathering is a weekly celebration of what God is doing through our communities and a time to be equipped and sent back out into everyday mission.
EXPEDITIONS
Go and experience.
A place for adventure, challenge, creation, service, and experiential learning.
Expeditions take us beyond our normal routines through wilderness adventures, service, and hands-on learning. They create opportunities to embrace challenge, experience creation, deepen relationships, develop resilience, and encounter God in unfamiliar places. Because discipleship isn’t just something we talk about—it’s something we live, practice, and experience together. Whether hiking a mountain, paddling a river, serving a community, camping under the stars, or learning a new skill, Expeditions remind us that the classroom of discipleship is often the world around us.
