CenterPoint Church started in 1930 in Marion, OH. The pioneering pastors had a vision for it to be a Bible-based, Spirit-led, genuine, authentic group of Christ-followers who would reach out to others with the love of God. The church has had several locations in Marion throughout the years. We currently have six acres on Marion-Mt Gilead Rd. God strategically gave us this location years ago. The area in which we are located has developed in the last several years to become the shopping hub in our region. We are on State Rt 95 (Marion-Mt. Gilead Rd.) about 1/2 mile east of US 23 just past Meijer and across the road from Menard’s Home Improvement Store.

Corporate Mission

God gives a unique call to each believer and each church. That call encompasses the purposes God has for us to fulfill. At CenterPoint Church, we understand our call to include:

…To be a place of new beginnings, where people regularly have the opportunity to safely connect or reconnect in relationship with Jesus.

…To be a place where we meet you where you are, a people who are nonjudgmental, accepting, loving, and welcoming.

…To be Word and Spirit-oriented, where the Bible is taught and the Spirit draws hearts and changes lives.

…To be a place where we give generously, where the needs of others are considered, and where we give beyond ourselves following the example of Jesus.

…To be a place that promotes thriving ministries to children and youth.

…To be a place where everybody is valued.

All of the Bible is the written Word of God. It is the first authority for our life and faith in Jesus Christ.

(2 Timothy 3:16; Romans 15:4; Acts 17:11-12)

We believe in God, who is three distinct Persons in one: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, who has revealed Himself in the Bible.

(Mark 1:10-11; Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19-20; Mark 12:29-30)

The Father.
He is the loving Creator of all things.

(Genesis 1:1-2; 1 John 3:1)

The Son, Jesus.
He is God come to Earth in the form of man, the only Son of God. It is only through faith in Him that man can have relationship with God and be assured of eternal life.

(1 John 2:2; Ephesians 1:7; John 1:14; Romans 3:25-26)

The Holy Spirit.
He is the Spirit of God who exalts Jesus and dwells within all those who have been born again. He is our Comforter and Guide, revealing God to us, and empowering us to be witnesses.

(Titus 3:5; Acts 1:8; 1 Corinthians 12:13; Luke 24:49)

All spiritual gifts mentioned in the New Testament are available for the church today.

(1 Corinthians 12:7-11; 1 Thessalonians 5:19-21; 1 Corinthians 14:1-2, 12)
