417 Church is a brand new church coming to Springfield Missouri on a mission to see God move in the 417. We believe Jesus is real, the Bible still speaks, and the local church should actually be alive and expectant when we gather.
On Sundays you will get strong worship, clear straight forward Bible preaching, and a room full of people who are hungry for more of God not more religion. Whether you are starting over or starting fresh, we want 417 Church to be the place where you meet Jesus, find your people, and step into what God has for you.
Our mission is simple: to see lives transformed by Jesus and to see that transformation ripple through families, neighborhoods, and the entire 417 area.
We are committed to loving God and loving others, and to be known for our love for one another.
We strive to glorify God through worship that is rooted in scripture, and that draws us closer to Him.
We are called to serve our community and those in need, through both physical and spiritual acts of love and kindness.
We seek to spread the good news of Jesus Christ to all people, and to share the gospel through both deed and word.
We prioritize the practice of discipling others in the faith, helping them to grow in their understanding of the Bible and their relationship with God.
We strive to be wise stewards of the resources God has given us, using them to meet the needs of the church and community.
We seek to foster unity in diversity, standing together as a church family united in our purpose of sharing God’s love.
We strive to be a holy people, living in obedience to God’s Word and in surrender to the transforming power of the Holy Spirit.
We seek to fulfill the Great Commission, making disciples of Jesus Christ in our region and beyond.
We invite you to explore our beliefs and join us in our pursuit of living out our faith in boldness and passion.
We believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible and authoritative Word of God.

We believe in the equipping of the saints for the work of the ministry.
