Sovereign Grace Churches is a network of evangelical Christian churches that emphasizes the authority of the Bible and the importance of grace in the Christian faith. Founded in the 1980s by C.J. Mahaney and others, the movement focuses on church planting, biblical teaching, and community involvement. The churches are known for their contemporary worship style and commitment to sound doctrine. They also prioritize relationships among congregations and support for pastors, aiming to foster a culture of mutual encouragement and accountability within the network.
