Epic Church - Philadelphia

In early 2007, lead pastor Kent Jacobs felt a calling to create a church that normal everyday people could relate to and find hope and life through Jesus. He began praying, and set in motion a plan to start a new church in the fall of 2008.

The team at Epic is passionate about creating environments where anyone can walk in the doors and feel valued and at home. From the parking lot welcome banners to the communication from stage to the intentional follow-up processes, the message is presented with energy, vision, excellence, and clear application.

This growing, multi-site church is reaching the city of Philadelphia through a non-traditional, multi-cultural, and evangelistic approach. Teaching is relevant, biblically-based, and humorous. You won’t hear the usual “churchy” vernacular or see suits and ties, but you will come away with a true sense that God is doing something special in and through this group of Jesus-followers. You will hear stories of radical life-change as people from all walks of life encounter the truth of God’s word and of the hope found in Jesus.

Attendance has increased year after year due to God’s goodness, a strong invite culture, the drive and energy of the staff and attenders, and ultimately, because of people experiencing life change. On average, 1600-1700 people attend Epic Church each week at four locations throughout the city.
