Who we are

Church for the Nations is a family of imperfect people joined together in an endless pursuit of welcoming heaven into every area of their lives.

Our DNA.

CFTN is known for its passionate worship, relevant teaching from God’s Word, and focus on the least, the last, and the lost.

Through the years, this church has become a refuge for those who are hurting and looking for a genuine encounter with God and His perfect love. Because of this, members get the privilege of witnessing lives being transformed on a daily basis.

You are welcome here.

No matter where you find yourself in life, you are welcome at CFTN; since no one is beyond the reach of God’s love. You are the Church—and CFTN is simply a place where the Church comes together.

As a member of a unified body, you are an essential part of the story that God is writing in the world through Church for the Nations.

Reach. Train. Send.

Our mission

Reach out to all people and nations with the Good News of Jesus; train them up by God’s Word to find and fulfill their purpose; and send them into the world to influence culture.

Spreading God’s perfect love.

Our vision

Church for the Nations is one multicultural, multigenerational family of imperfect people awakened by God’s perfect love being sent as transforming agents into the world to influence culture.

Our history

Church for the Nations was born on Easter Sunday, April 20, 2003. In the inaugural service, Lead Pastors Michael and Mary Maiden shared the vision of this new church with the 250 in attendance.

Pastor Mike expressed that this church would be used by God to reach the city of Phoenix, and its members would be empowered to impact the nations of the world. This mission to reach, train, and send believers would be the way they fulfill their calling to be a Church for the Nations.

Today, CFTN is home to thousands of believers from more than 140 nationalities, meeting at 5 different locations, including our online church, with one common purpose — to bring glory to the Name of Jesus.

CFTN is a church that Jesus has birthed, nurtured, and continues to raise up. All glory goes to Him for the awesome things He’s done in and through CFTN over the years, and He has confirmed time and time again that the best is yet to come.
