Our Story

Thrive is a story about God’s faithfulness. It started as a dream when the members of Central Christian Church of Carmel purchased over 80 acres of land nearly two decades ago in preparation for a move. Our needs have changed and evolved along the way, but we remained faithful to wait on God’s call to move… and call He did. In 2015 He brought a buyer for our former church and another buyer for the extra land we were looking to sell. We had been praying for the right time, the right circumstances, and the right partners. God answered our prayers. 

We were called to this location to reach Hamilton County's developing area better. Our church's long-standing vision was to relocate, with the goal of being rooted in a place where we can serve a growing community. Our building and location offer much to our surrounding community, including Sunday morning worship, youth ministry, children’s ministry, and a weekday preschool.

At Thrive, we are on a mission to Follow Jesus, Connect People and Serve Our World.

Thrive is a church for you! We look forward to seeing you soon.
