Your Next Steps

We invite you to get involved with our church at any level that feels aligned for you at this time. From coffee with the pastor, becoming a member, or inquiring about baptism, here are some things you can do to participate in Paradox!

We’re here for you, no matter where you Are.

If you are new to church, deconstructing religion, or reconstructing faith, then you can find a spiritual home at Paradox Church.

Coffee with the Pastor

Start (or continue!) your Paradox journey by grabbing coffee with Pastor Craig! He would love to hear about your personal experiences and share the story of the church. Many people have left these coffee chats feeling validated and more connected to the community — reminding us that every story matters and every journey starts with a simple conversation!
(If you are joining us online, Craig would love to get "coffee" with you over Zoom!)

A simple chat can open the door to belonging. Schedule yours by clicking the button below!

Discussion Groups

Because sermons at Paradox start discussions rather than end them, we have discussion groups that meet throughout the week to keep the conversation going. This is the BEST way to experience Paradox and we would love to get you involved!

Volunteer Teams

The world needs more affirming Christian churches. You can participate in building this kind of church by volunteering at Paradox. People of all ages can volunteer with hospitality, tech, liturgy, communion, social events, and more. Plus, it's a lot of fun to hang out with other people who are working toward that same goal!

Serve Redlands

Join us in our partnership with inspiring local organizations and care for those in need. We work with three local organizations who feed the hungry and help freed prisoners get back on their feet. We would love to have you join our efforts!

Baptism

If your love for God has led you to become a more loving person, the sacrament of baptism is an excellent way to acknowledge and welcome this transformation.

This change is worth celebrating and we would love for you to celebrate it with us!

Membership

While anyone can fully participate in Paradox Church, membership provides an opportunity for you to be involved with the governance of our church.

Members are people who support the mission of Paradox and have found a spiritual home at our church. Members can vote in Elder elections and serve on church boards. If becoming a member is something you are interested in, let us know!

social Events

Paradox hosts social events several times a year to build life-long relationships, deepen connection, and have fun with authentic people who all want to become more loving people.

Some of our favorite events include our Paradox Kids Variety Show, Camping Trip, and Resurrection Sunrise hike. Stay updated on the latest events and jump into life at Paradox!

Donate
