Hello and welcome to The Difference Church. My name is Pastor Greg and this photo is of me and my wife of 25+ years. We currently live in Florida and have 4 boys at various stages of their lives. This journey of starting a mobile church began in March of 2019, as I sought a deeper relationship with Jesus. As a pastor of a megachurch with 1000's of members, I wasn't experiencing the type of intimacy I saw with Jesus and his disciples, and frankly, I didn't see many of the "church go'ers" experiencing it either. And I certainly didn't see all that many people experiencing the abundant life Jesus promises. I knew there had to be more.
In March of 2019, I began a journey of fasting and prayer with God asking him to show me what we were all missing, and asking for a greater intimacy in my own relationship with Jesus. 30 days into that time of deeper prayer and fasting I was woken up at 4am with a clear vision for the church (the people) rising up to BE THE CHURCH. It wasn't for me to get a fancy building, become a celeb style preacher, and create entertaining services. The Lord clearly showed me in that vision that the path to making a difference in our world is intimacy with God leading to intimacy with others. He told me we would use our homes and other public spaces to bring the love of Christ to others.
Over the course of the next 12 months, the Lord taught me personally how to grow in my intimacy with Him, by truly following Jesus, and I began experiencing the 4 S's (which I now teach) of Solitude, Silence, Scripture, & Sabbath. As I pressed into my relationship with God the Father and Jesus the Son through the Holy Spirit, I began to discover a greater love I had not known before. And that greater love led me to more peace, joy, and hope in my life as I trusted God with everything I have. The freedom I have personally experienced in this journey has given me a mission to lead people into this intimate relationship with God as we join a movement of the church without walls and without borders. I would ask you to read Our Mission and pray about coming alongside us in this journey. Your home can become a sanctuary where others find healing and restoration. This is the call Jesus invites us into. Together we can make a difference in our families, our communities, and the world!
Making a difference together,
Pastor Greg Froelich
