What is Faithwalkers?We live immersed in a world of sights and sounds, but life's truest treasures can’t be seen or touched. That’s why Jesus told us to store up treasures in heaven where moth and rust can’t destroy and where no thief can break in and steal. (Matthew 6:19–21) It’s why Paul...

Day #1 of Sabbatical - take a moment to listen to what is a Sabbatical exactly? THANK YOU so much for this gift to us. Two helpful things: one, please pray for us that God ministers to me and our family in new and sweet ways. Two, give us a little space to unplug from ministry and reconnect with God, family and learning what God has in store for us during this time. We miss you already and will be back.

Awaken’s Origin Story

In 1996, ten Christian graduates of the University of Florida dreamed about starting a campus ministry and a campus church that would help connect college students to Jesus Christ. And so, in 1997, we moved to Jacksonville and launched a student group on the campus of the University of North Florida (UNF) called Jacksonville Christian Life (JCL). Our initial efforts were raw and clumsy, but God blessed us with some amazing students and volunteers who were willing to invest a portion of their lives to reaching college students.

Ten years later, in 2006, our pastors and leadership team began dreaming again. This time, our vision was to launch a next-generational church that would focus in reaching young singles, young families, and the young-at-heart in the broader Jacksonville community. Our experience with students and young people at UNF taught us that young people feel disconnected from the church. Our hope and burden was to build a community that would help bridge the gap between young people and the church.

That burden spawned Awaken Church, which launched in September of 2008. Since the launch of Awaken, our passion remains fixed on effectively mobilizing young people and the young-at-heart to God-driven action and empower them to live mature and missional lives. That ongoing vision, passion, and burden is why we exist.

Our hope is that you will share that burden and this mission with us…
