One thing we commonly hear from our guest is that when they walked into our community, they felt loved and welcomed. We are a multi-ethnic, multi-generational community that love to encourage one another, learn scripture together, and rely upon the power of the Holy Spirit. We want our church to reflect God's kingdom here on earth, and we strive to help every person grow in their relationship with Christ so they can fulfill the purpose God has for their life.

We can’t wait to help everyone in your family grow in their faith.
When you’re raising a family, it's tough to find a church that everyone loves. That's why we've created a weekend experience where your kids (birth–grade 5) will learn about God in an environment created just for them.

Latest "In Between" Podcast Featuring Dr. Seleshi Asfaw and Flo Gimei
In this episode about being a part of the beloved community of God, Julia hosts a conversation about how current events are impacting our New American sisters and brothers. About a quarter of Vineyard Columbus is foreign born, so this is a very personal conversation for many!
Vineyard Core
Vineyard Core is our discipleship tool that’s framed around our mission to develop multiethnic communities of disciples who experience God, love one another, and partner with Christ to heal the world.
There are six pathways in Core. Each pathway begins with a set of three brief videos that ask and answer some important questions: Why does this matter to me? Why does this matter to God? And what does the Bible say about this? You can watch these anytime that works for you.
To access these videos, create an account at Vineyard.Online.

Get Connected into a Small Group!
We believe that growth happens in community. It's a place to be known, to receive prayer, to wrestle through the difficult questions of faith, to share life with other people, and all the things in between.
Go to the small group area in the lobby after service today and we'll help you get connected.
