Parent Church

Grandview Christian Assembly was planted in January 2009 in the Upper Arlington area largely by a group of Oasis staff and alumni.  It then moved to Grandview in July of 2010.  It is a non-denominational church that reaches out to graduate & professional students as well as those settling into adult life.  Situated only fifteen minutes from OSU's campus provides Oasis the opportunity to join with GCA for some small groups, men's ministry, and other events.  Oasis also joins GCA about once a quarter for a corporate Sunday meeting.  Contact Jeff Friess for more information.

Momentum of Togetherness: Why the Church is the Best Thing Ever for the Christian Life.   

Is the church just an accessory item to the Christian life? Many have begun to feel this way as they pursue a course of isolated spiritual growth. Momentum gives good reasons for settling down with other believers, putting a stop to wandering from one congregation to another, and being about the business of serious Christian development.

WARNING Contains No Sugar: Honest Words for Aspiring Leaders in the Church

The Devil is in the details. That's what new leaders need to remember as they aspire to become effective in the church. Those who are just beginning to navigate leadership roles usually pay attention to critical big box items like vision, style, and methods. Meanwhile, a multitude of smaller issues that go undetected may be undermining their service. Symptoms include:
• Not being taken seriously • Getting little or no cooperation • Failing to inspire others • Ideas that fizzle out • Toxic team dynamics


For this is the will of God, that by doing good you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish people.  Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God.

1 Peter 2:15-16
