About Us

Who We Are

Love Lake Norman is a church in Cornelius, North Carolina, with one simple mission: to help you find and follow Jesus. We believe life is fuller and more meaningful when you walk with Him. No matter where you are on your faith journey, you belong here—even before you believe. We’ve created a place where questions are welcome, stories are shared, and authentic relationships grow.

As part of the Irresistible Church Network, we are connected to a community of churches that share our passion for creating engaging, welcoming spaces where faith becomes practical and life-giving. We believe that every community deserves a church like this, and we want to be part of making that happen!

Our Strategy

At Love Lake Norman, we believe faith is an active journey. These four principles guide us as we build relationships, invite others into community, grow in discipleship, and serve with purpose:

  • Invest – Build genuine relationships with the people you work, play, and live alongside.
  • Invite – Extend a warm invitation to a creative, biblically-based gathering designed with newcomers in mind.
  • Grow – Step into a discipleship community by joining a small group (Crew).
  • Go – Discover and use your gifts to serve others, both within the church and beyond.

Our Story

Love Lake Norman started with a vision—a dream to create a church where everyone feels accepted, encouraged, and challenged. A place where people find and follow Jesus. On April 2, 2017, Jerel Law and a small group of passionate leaders launched our first worship gathering at Oak Street Mill in Cornelius. From those humble beginnings, we’ve grown into a community committed to helping people discover purpose, find belonging, and take their next steps with Jesus.

Our Vision for the Future

We believe there’s a bigger story, and you’re a part of it. Our future is rooted in hope—a hope that brings light to our community, shares the transformative love of Jesus, and reminds us that God’s love always has the final word. Together, we’re building a church that makes a difference, one life, one story, and one step at a time.

What This Means for You

You’re always welcome at Love Lake Norman. No matter your background or where you stand in your faith, you’ll find a place where you’re accepted and valued. We’re saving a seat just for you!
