Our Story

Ethos Communion Church is a new church plant started in the Los Angeles area with a vision to bring the good news of who we truly are in relation to who God truly is through Christ. The thing is, we can’t really know who we are without knowing who God really is because we were created to live in relation to God. We were created with an eternal longing in our hearts that can only be satisfied by knowing God as He truly is. We believe, this true knowledge of God comes most fully through Jesus Christ, and so Ethos centers itself around the person of Jesus Christ.

What does our name mean?

The word ethos refers to a character or a way of life. At Ethos we believe there is a way of life that is ultimately most satisfying and fulfilling. This ethos is centered in what the Bible calls the gospel which can be briefly described as: upside-down, inside-out, and forward-back.

This ethos comes by way of communion with the person of Christ. Communion refers to the intimate experiential relationship that is possible with God through Christ. This communion is the natural product of our spiritual union with Christ in his life, death, and resurrection through faith.

This communion also extends to others who live in communion with Christ which is what we call the church. The word church literally means “of the Lord”, and so a church is essentially a community of people who share Jesus Christ as their Lord.

In sum, Ethos Communion Church is a community of Christ followers who are committed to communing with Christ in such a way that it transforms the ethos of our lives and our communities.
