Frequently Asked Questions
The New Church is a Christian denomination that uses Swedenborgian spirituality as a basis for understanding the Lord’s Word, our own spiritual growth, and our world.
Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1772) was scientist, inventor, and theologian. His theological writings, which fill over 30 large volumes, uncover a deep, spiritual meaning within the Bible’s literal stories. The systematic theology sheds new, bright light on notions of faith that have been considered dark mysteries for centuries. The New Church offers a spiritual and psychological framework that emphasizes love and wisdom in active, useful daily living.

A New Church Group is a gathering in which people who have a mutual interest in the New Church intentionally nurture individual spiritual growth and spiritual community-building.
A New Church Group can take many forms: a worship service in a church, a gathering of three friends who meet every week to talk about their lives in a spiritual context, or moms or dads who host each other and their kids once a month to talk about the hardships and victories of parenting. It can be any group of people meeting regularly and supporting each other in living heavenly lives based on the Lord’s teachings.
At the General Church Office of Outreach, we are passionate about promoting and encouraging people to find or to create and facilitate such groups. We offer support and leader training as well as content, connections, and other resources.
We believe that healthy human relationships with the Lord, with His Word, and with one another are our most important enduring gifts. A New Church Group is a place to nurture these precious relationships in a safe and supportive environment. In a group setting, you can explore and practice spiritual growth so that you are better equipped to make it an important part of your daily life.
