Pastor Ben & Petrea Lamb

Hi.  I am the founding pastor of The Visible Church in Green Bay Wisconsin.  We call the church “Visible” because we believe the only kind of faith that matters is one that is illustrated or one that makes a positive difference.  Does your faith make a difference in your life or in the life of someone else? Galatians 5:6 states it in this way, "...the only thing that matters is faith expressing itself through love."  Faith must have an expression of some kind and I believe when that expression is based upon a deep love for God and others it makes a BIG difference.  I invite you to come and experience the love of God for yourself.  Come and learn how you can have a faith that expresses itself through love.

HERE'S WHAT YOU'LL EXPERIENCE AT
THE VISIBLE CHURCH WHEN YOU COME TO VISIT

The Visible Church is a place where God is given praise & worship that may include clapping, singing, jumping, lifting hands, bowing in reverence and much more.   Services are very charismatic in tone and exciting because we have been forgiven much... so we LOVE GOD A LOT!

The Visible Church is dedicated to the authority of the Bible and because of this messages are often delivered with emotion and a strong commitment to the truth.  It was the Apostle Paul who instructed his young disciple named Timothy with these words-  
​    "Be ready to spread the word whether or not the time is right. Point out errors, warn people, and encourage them. Be very patient when you teach." 2 Timothy 4:2

The Visible Church is driven by relationship and provides a relaxed atmosphere for people to get to know each other while learning about Jesus.  There are many opportunities for you to connect with others over doughnuts & coffee or for you to sit and talk with friends.  Regardless of your social status or history THE VISIBLE CHURCH IS THE PLACE TO FIND RELATIONSHIPS THAT MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

In The Visible Church Kids Class we are learning new and fun ways to let our Jesus light SHINE! Whether it's playing games, learning exciting ways to apply what we learn from the Bible or experiencing more of God in praise and worship, we love becoming VISIBLE for Jesus!  The Visible Church offers nursery facilities to kids under 4yrs old and then something special for kids up to 12 yrs old during the first service only at 9:00 am.  After a time of worship with mom & dad in the main sanctuary, kids ages 5-12 are dismissed to go to their own class.

The Visible Church facilitates smalls groups that meet in homes around the Green Bay metro area. These groups are designed to foster greater relationships while deepening your Biblical understanding.  These groups meet weekly for about 12 weeks at a time.  When you are here, ask about small groups at our information HUB.

Stage Right is a dance program for kids Pre-K through Young Adult.  It offers training in all forms of dance with the express goal of using those talents for the Glory of God.  This ministry is actively restoring the joy of dancing for God!  Find out more by visiting www.stagerightclub.com or asking about Stage Right when you visit.

The Visible Church has "Compassion In Action".  This is our ministry of serving & loving the city of Green Bay.  The "CIA" offers The Visible Church members a chance to volunteer in a variety of ways. You might serve food at a shelter or clean up streets.  If you want to express your faith through serving, then this ministry is what you are looking for.  Ask how you can get involved with CIA.

Here at the Visible Church, we believe in the power or prayer.  You will have many opportunities to join with others to seek God in fervent prayer.  Prayer services are held weekly on Thursday nights from 6-7pm.  In addition, you may submit a personal prayer request online by clicking this link-  SUBMIT PRAYER REQUEST or you can attend a regular service and receive personal prayer for anything you need.

The Visible Church takes discipleship seriously.  Take time to visit our growing online center for doctrine and topical studies.  When you visit The Visible Church, make it a point to stop at our Growth Center to pick up any one of the books and resources that are made available for donations of any amount.  If you don't have the extra to give, pick up the book you want and consider it yours FREE!  The books & resources provided are specially picked by the pastors at The Visible Church just for you.

Phillipians 1:6 says-  "I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns."  The Unfinished Men's Ministry meets every 3rd week and focuses on encouraging men to cooperate with the good work that God is doing.  If you want to know more about the activities and upcoming events for men, please subscribe to the LOOP.  

The Visible Church offers focused ministry for students 12 to 18 yrs of age every Wednesday night at 6:30pm. Along with these weekly meetings, Visible Student Ministries hosts monthly activities to deepen the connection between students who share a hunger for God.  Yearly, teens get to travel to summer camps and winter camps for encouragement and to build fun memories.  For more information, please subscribe to the LOOP and come join us on Wednesday nights.  

Vessels for Honor is the heartbeat of 2 Timothy 2:21 and it describes the motivation for the Women's Ministry.  This ministry at The Visible Church has monthly meetings for women age 18 and older.  Come for fellowship with other women and grow in your relationship with God.  We're here for you no matter what stage of life you are in.  Meetings are held on the first Friday of the month at 6:30pm.  Ask to be added to the LOOP and receive updates about our monthly meetings and other Women's Ministry activities.  For more information please contact: womensministry@visiblechurchgb.com   

The Visible Church is delighted to provide a rigorous Bible Study every Sunday Morning at 10:45am in the Multipurpose Room.  This class time is not intimidating and designed for both brand new believers and those who have been saved for decades to sit and study the Word of God together.  These classes cover the foundations of systematic theology in relevant ways and with more Biblical depth than most people get exposed to in modern churches.  So, if you want to truly deepen your understanding of Christian theology, then please come grow your faith with us in Bible Class.
