OUR NAME

The name Sent Church comes from multiple places in scripture, including John 20:21, where Jesus said “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.”

In the same way that Jesus served as an ambassador to the greatness and goodness of God, we want to fulfill that role for our world as well. It’s our privilege to be a missionary for Jesus, whether we have to cross an ocean or an alley to tell someone of His love and forgiveness. We want to equip you to do exactly that, wherever He might be sending you.

OUR BELIEFS

Sent Church is part of the Wesleyan Church. Here are a few of the distinct characteristics that define the soul of the Wesleyan Church:

  • The Bible is God’s holy Word. It uniquely and infallibly reveals God’s plan for His people and how to live out that plan, individually and corporately. Beliefs, practices, priorities, and our mission are to be anchored in clear biblical teachings.

  • Jesus Christ is the defining feature of God’s will and relationship with all humankind. In Christ is found both newness of life and the highest and clearest example for godliness. People made new in Christ find Him to be the source of faith, hope, and love in both the inner life and in our outward actions engaging a world desperate for hope and life.

  • Making disciples is a clear mandate from Christ. This requires a strong missional focus on evangelism and training in spiritual growth and holy living. Done effectively, this will produce and promote growth and health in and among the churches.

  • The denomination exists to help local congregations grow and multiply, be more healthy, and more authentically reflect God’s plan. Local churches are the most fundamental and strategic points of evangelism and discipleship. The challenge of the denomination is to keep finding the best ways to serve, strengthen, and multiply congregations.

  • Wesleyans respect leadership that is placed over them, while realizing that the authority and effectiveness of spiritual leadership is not primarily bestowed, but earned, and is characterized by a loving and willing heart of obedience that serves God and mankind gladly. Wesleyans desire to be leaders in serving.

  • There is intrinsic value in every person. Biblical unity becomes all the more important and beautiful in the light of the wide-ranging differences in personalities, cultures, races, languages, talents, and perspectives. Finding unity and mutual love in Christ eliminates devaluation and deprivation of life to one another.

OUR HISTORY

Sent Church was launched in September 1985 and is now a vital community of faith in the North Dallas suburban area. In 1992, the church moved to its current campus on Spring Creek Pkwy. After several additions and the construction of a new Worship Center in 2003, Sent Church continues to figure out new ways to Live Sent.
