Our Story

How it all started...

Radius is a new and vibrant church in the heart of St. Petersburg, Florida. We launched in September of 2014. Since we’ve started, so many new friendships have been formed, lives have been eternally transformed and our city has been impacted. We praise God for all He has accomplished!

Back in May of 2014, Blake and Amanda visited with several families and shared the vision of Radius Church. One by one, family by family, this audacious idea grew into reality. A group of people came together under a common mission and with the aligning values of relationship, authenticity and movement.  

On a Sunday in September 2014, we converted a couple rooms at the St. Petersburg Shuffleboard Club into Radius Church. Then we prayed that who God wanted to show up would show up.

A couple of years of meeting at the Shuffleboard Club and our weekly gathering moved to the Sunshine Center, right next door.

Our Own Building

A couple of years later, we moved into our own space. A building at 165 13th St N., St Petersburg FL 33705.

...And they did.

Radius continues its commitment to share God's love with the community that we are honored to be a part of.

“We are a people on mission, moving out in ever-widening circles to change our world.”- This is our mission statement and we say it each week at Radius to remind ourselves why we exist.

It’s not a Sunday, one-and-done kind of statement. It’s not a check box on your spiritual to-do list. Being on mission is something we are meant to strive for every day, walking hand in hand with the Holy Spirit and each other. How do we believe the world is changed?  You can see our answer in our vision statement- “By connecting more and more people to the visible tangible love of Jesus Christ.” What changes the world is the love of Jesus Christ.  

Ultimately, we are a group of people committed to sharing Jesus’ love in multiple and dynamic ways to the world in which we live. 

Where we are headed...

Loving each other and loving our neighbors is more radical than it seems. This is the world changing mission Radius sets out to accomplish each and every day.  We’d love for you to make plans to come and join one of our gatherings to experience if you belong at Radius.
