We are amazed at the joyful sacrifice and generosity of our Soul City Starters. God has lovingly overwhelmed us with an amazing space for our Church in the heart of Chicago’s West Loop. This is a BIG answer to months and months of BIG prayers. And now, our team is responding to God goodness with BIG Shoulders.
Every Tuesday, Saturday, and Sunday we gather to build this Church together. We work. We sweat. We eat. We laugh. We pray. And in the process, we are BEcoming the Church.
We would love for you to join us. You don’t need any previous construction experience to be a part. All you need is the desire to be a part of this amazing story of our start. You can LITERALLY build a Church with us. It’s a crazy adventure that God has us on. And we’d love for you to be a part!
Tuesdays 4.00p – 8.00p
Saturdays 9.00a – 1.00p
Sundays 2.00p – 7.00p
Our next Work and Worship is Sunday, August 12 from 2.00p – 7.00p. You can sign up to work and Worship with us below.

I was having a conversation with a friend recently who is about as much “unchurched” as someone could be. I was telling him about Soul City Church and all that God is doing to start this church. And it struck him. “I guess I never really thought about where churches came from before. This is [...]

This morning Jeanne and I had the joy of waking up to our little Gigi covered in some sort of Allergic Reaction all over her cute little body. Jeanne and I had the exact same thought at the exact same moment – “How do we avoid having to go to the Hospital over this one?” [...]

Why does anyone walk away from a great job, at an amazing church, with fabulous friends, having just built their dream home in a warm climate? It could only be Insanity. Most days I think its Insanity until I am reminded that it’s something much deeper – Obedience. An obedience that is rooted in Dependence. [...]

Kudos to Toyota for taking a brake from all the other attention their company has been getting lately. I love what they are doing with the Swagger Wagon campaign. They are not only TRANSFORMING the public perception of the Mini Van / Station Wagon, but in a very real way Transforming if not Distracting the [...]

If you haven’t read John Ortberg’s latest book, “The Me I Want To Be”, I highly recommend that you stop what your doing (’cause I’m about to ruin…) and head to the Soul City Store and grab it right now. It’s that good. It’s that important. In a sense it reads like a Cheat Sheet [...]

A while back I (Jeanne) read the fabulous book INFLUCENCER with the Buckhead Leadership Team. The author thoughtfully proves that when it comes to influence that the two primary questions that everyone asks before any kind of significant change / transformation is… IS IT WORTH & CAN I DO IT? And they need a story, [...]
