At Hanover Community Church our mission is to be disciples who make disciples. This mission is given to us by Jesus Christ in Matthew 28:18-20.
Everyone is shaped by something, and without intentional biblical and theological training, Christians can default to the values of modern culture.
True discipleship at HCC means life-on-life fellowship, deep connection to the church body, and intentional biblical training. Discipleship helps us to deeply know, love, and enjoy God, as well as one another. Our goal is that everyone would come to know and love Jesus, and be made into His likeness.
Let’s journey the road of discipleship: maturing as Christians, loving each other, forgiving each other, and worshiping Jesus, together, as one body.

Gospel of John: Savoring the Peace of Jesus in a Chaotic World
Slow down and savor the peace of Jesus through the Gospel of John. In this study, we will learn how John's Gospel will challenge us to take the posture of peace - which is a stillness of the soul no matter what one's circumstances are.
