About Us
![](https://stocktoncentralchurch.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/DJI_0015.jpg)
Welcome to our church.
We are a diverse community of people who are discovering what it means to share God’s love. We don’t have all of the answers. We are just like you, trying to discover what God is all about and what His plan is for our lives.
We believe that practical teaching is necessary to transform people’s lives. Scripture is inspired by God and is our authority regarding Christian beliefs and is a guide for Christian living.
If you are looking for a place that is authentic and relevant, come and experience Stockton Central for yourself.
