AliveChurch wants to make a lasting difference in your life, in our community, and in the world.
Our mission is to lead people to become fully devoted followers of Christ. That's how we're able to make a difference, and it's the driving force behind everything we do.
Your Life
Wherever you are in life, you matter and you have a purpose. We want to help you become the person God has created you to be. Your journey has a next step and we'll help you find it. It could start with serving, finding God's vision for your life, giving, or joining us regularly.
You don't have to take the next step alone. With a strong community of friends, you can laugh, grow, and serve with people who genuinely care about you. Find a small group, or LifeGroup, to join you on your journey.
Your Family
Strong families start with solid foundations. That's why we partner with parents to help raise the next generation to become followers of Christ. Your children and teens have opportunities throughout the week to grow relationships with each other and with God.
Our Community
We are passionate about serving the local community and demonstrating God's love to others. Whether individually or in groups, within our church or to total strangers, we are focused on supporting and engaging in relationships that provide relief and restoration to a hurting world. One of our favorite ways we do that is through working together with our Mission Partners and other community churches.
Our Leadership
Robert Sanders - Lead Pastor
I grew up in Oklahoma City where I was saved at the age of 7. Since then, my life has never been the same. I am blessed to have been married to my wife Melanie for the past 32 years and we have two sons, Allan and Collin.
Allan works as a Sound/Light Engineer and a musician in Oklahoma. Collin is an Electrical Engineer for a company in Virginia.
We love serving The Lord and the communities of Northeast Oklahoma and invite you to stop in and find out why we say "This is who we are and this is what we do!"
Zene Smith - Worship Pastor
Throughout my career as a musician, I’ve found few things as rewarding as worshiping Christ with people you love. If you’d have told me 10 years ago that I’d get to be leading people into the presence of God through worship for a living, I would’ve told you that you’re crazy! Now I get to serve as the Worship Pastor, as well as the Technology and Media Team Director at AliveChurch.
In addition, I am also a singer and songwriter for several projects including Fight The Fade, my own solo music, and of course AliveChurch Worship.
I live in the Bluejacket area with my wife Kelsey and three sons, Braxton, Ezekiel, and Jack.
