West Liberty Mennonite Churches

The area’s Anabaptist heritage is visible in modest meetinghouses around the Mad River Valley and country roads north and south of town. These congregations emphasize simple worship, community service, peacemaking, and mutual aid, often supporting local relief efforts and hands-on outreach that fit the region’s agricultural rhythms.

Contemporary & Non-Denominational

Modern worship, practical teaching, and casual environments are common in churches meeting in multipurpose spaces near US-68 between Bellefontaine and Urbana.

Sermon clips from West Liberty churches

36s
“it just exposed this weakness in me and and I'm not trying to add one more thing to your list of things to do and I'm not trying to add one more thing to your schedule. That's not what the sermon's about. What it's about though is that I do want to try to impress on you the same importance that I'm grasping, continuing to grasp, always being reminded of that we have to protect that time with Jesus. But he withdrew to the wilderness to pray.”
43s
“The busier life gets, the easier it becomes to push aside the very thing that we need most. How often is that you? if we stopped withdrawing to our phones, to Netflix, to just isolation, to whatever the things are, because we all withdraw to something, you know that, right? We all have our thing, our comfort place, our thing that we do. What would it look like if instead we withdrew into the presence of Jesus?”
29s
“And I think that you know what I'm talking about because here's the things that we equate rest with. We think that rest is doing nothing. We think that rest is bed rotting and watching Netflix all day. We think that rest is taking a time out to play solitaire on our phone. We think that rest is going away for a vacation. Right? How many of y'all gone on a vacation and came back even more exhausted? That ain't rest.”
39s
“The Sabbath, which is a simple day of rest, but it's so much more than just a day of rest. It's not just taking a break, it's not just to stop doing something or rest, it is about taking intentional time weekly to rest in the presence of God and focus in on the fact that he is the one that's holding everything together, not us and that he alone is worthy of our worship, excuse me. It is that weekly rhythm of connection, daily, weekly.”
28s
“"When we enter into this relationship with Jesus and when we begin to experience that inner transformation of what He does, because that's what He does. He transforms us from the inside out. That is where the good works flow from. They come out of the abundance of transformation that is happening inside of us. Because the old is gone and the new is here. And God works out of that."”
30s
“"Our reward in heaven is independent of how the boss or the teacher or the coach treats us. So that means all those times that you went to work and you did those things that went unnoticed. It means that God noticed them. It means that all those times that you weren't recognized for the hard work that you put in. Or recognized for what a team player that you are. That God noticed and he recognizes it."”
34s
“"See, our work is for God. And we might have to answer to the boss. We might have to answer to the coach. We might have to answer to the teacher. But ultimately, we answer to God. And knowing that we're going to answer to him is what drives our motivation. And that's the point that Paul is driving home here. He is saying whatever you do, whatever activity you do, you fill in the blank. Work at it with all of your heart, with purpose and with integrity."”
23s
“"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. Whatever you do, whatever activity you do, whatever job you have, do it with all of your heart."”
28s
“"Our work is both vertical and horizontal. It is vertical because we're offering up this time, we're offering up this activity from our heart, from our self to God, in worship to Him. And then it's horizontal because God will take that effort, and He will take the work that we're doing, and He will take our offering, and He will begin to change our attitude. He will change our heart, and then He will move it out to accomplish His mission here on earth."”
21s
“"Our worship is not just confined to an hour on Sunday morning, or in the morning, or in the evening, or in the evening, or in the evening, when we read our Bible, or when we're in the car listening to worship music. Our worship should be, it should encompass our entire day and work as a part of that. Do you know that if you have a job, that you will spend approximately 90,000 hours in your lifetime at your job?"”
