What's In A Name?

A Church's name says a lot about its mission and character.

When we began deliberating on what to call our new church plant, we considered our calling, the community that we were planting in, our values and our mission. NORTHSTAR was the perfect fit. Here's why...

For Centuries, Polaris, better known as "The North Star" has helped wayward seafarers find direction and has guided mariners around the world safely to their destinations. In the same way, NorthStar Church exists to help people discover life's true direction....A life connected to God. A life filled with peace and contentment. A redeemed life made possible only through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ!

The Bible teaches that “the heavens tell of the glory of God” (Psalms 19:1). Polaris, the star we call the North Star, is actually an object lesson about our Lord? The North Star gives us guidance and direction -- so does God. From our vantage point, because of the tilt of the earth’s axis, all the heavens appear to rotate around the North Star -- God is the center of the universe. The North Star is actually three separate stars that appear to be one -- God is also three in one: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
