Resurrection Oakland is a church that welcomes those who are convinced of the claims of Christianity, those who are unconvinced, and those who are somewhere in between. We don’t have all the answers, nor do we have it all together. Rather, we are broken, messy people who are learning the way of Jesus and seeking to love our neighbor and city. We are so glad you are here and would love for you to join us in this mission. 2
