Our vision is to empower followers of Christ to experience the light and life of Jesus and to share it with a world that is hurting and longing for hope.
We exist to ignite and equip believers to know and worship the Lord, helping people come to know Jesus and live for Him in all of life (Matt. 28:19). Everything we do aims to strengthen and equip people as Spirit-filled leaders who impact the church, their families, and their communities (Eph. 4:12). There is power in knowledge, and knowing God through His Word gives us great strength.
Jesus came not to make people religious but to make them alive. As the light of the world, He brings truth, clarity, and direction (John 1:1), and offers fullness of life marked by peace, love, and joy (John 10:10). This true life is found in fully following Him, as we surrender and live devoted to Him in every area (Luke 9:24).
We pursue a real, growing relationship with Jesus, becoming mature and grounded in the Spirit. What God forms in us flows into everyday life—at home, work, and in our communities. We are committed to both spiritual depth and active mission, knowing we cannot share what we do not have.
People are deeply struggling—success and comfort cannot heal the heart. Jesus meets us with truth, compassion, and power, offering healing, rest, and purpose (Matt. 11:28; Psalm 34:5). As He restores us, He sends us to bring that same hope to others.

History
Established in 1988.
Radiant Church was started as Bridgeway Church in 1988. A small group of twenty people started meeting to talk about planting a church in the growing suburbs of Atlanta. The church grew, built ministries and buildings, and had a wonderful effect on the community.
After many great years, Bridgeway began to decline and in 2016 began a process of reevaluation. After considering different ways to move forward, we felt it necessary to return to the basics of the faith: a focus on personal relationships, the Word of God, and helping those in need.
In Spring of 2020 we decided a new name was necessary to distinguish the church from the past. We chose Radiant Church because we are called to be lights in the world, and also to remember our history as a replant. Psalm 34:5 says, "Those who look to him will be radiant, their faces will never be ashamed." Jesus takes away our shame and we want others to know that, and we want that hope to radiate to the ends of the earth.
