THE FAITH CHAPEL STORY

Faith Chapel is a non-denominational family that is one church in two locations. Our central campus is in Birmingham, AL—an affordable, family-friendly city that is one of the largest in the state and still expanding. Our second campus location was launched in the fall of 2019 in Columbus, GA—a military town that is the 3rd largest city in GA. At Faith Chapel, the mission and vision is “to grow people up through God’s Word to Reflect Jesus.”

Faith Chapel launched in April 1981 in the 4-room home of its Founding Pastor, Mike Moore. Over several decades, through God’s faithfulness, Pastor Mike developed what began as a small home-based Bible study into a growing congregation of thousands committed to transforming lives and families through its weekly worship services, local outreach, and national television broadcast. In December 2002, Faith Chapel completed construction on its $16 million, 3,000-seat “WordDome” worship facility, which through God’s help, the church paid for entirely debt-free. In 2010, the church completed construction on another of its major building projects—a $27 million family activity center known as “The Bridge.” Consisting of six interconnected Domes, The Bridge houses many amenities including a 12-lane bowling alley; a Christian teen dance club; a smoke-free and alcohol-free Christian adult event facility; an indoor playground for children; a fitness center complete with strength training equipment, an indoor track, and basketball courts; and a lobby area with a centrally located climbing wall. The vision of The Bridge is to provide a safe place where people of all ages can form life-giving relationships. The facility serves as a strategic tool used by Faith Chapel to “bridge” the gap that exists between those far from God in the community and the local church.

In June 2022, Pastor Mike announced a new season of ministry as he transitioned out of his role as the Senior Pastor at the end of 2022. On January 1, 2023, his son, Michael K. Moore assumed the Lead Pastor role. The leadership and members of Faith Chapel have embraced this new beginning and are excited to walk by faith into a fresh vision, knowing that our best days are still ahead!

CORE VALUES

GOD’S WORD: We commit to let God’s Word guide our everyday lives

PEOPLE: We aim to love people the way God loves people

TEAMWORK: We work together to achieve more than we could alone
