About TKC
Glorify the true King and declare the gospel to all people
The King’s Church is an outpost (Eph. 3:10) of Christian community devoted to loving our neighbor (Gal. 5:14), serving one another (1 Peter 4:10) and honoring Jesus (Col. 3:17) in all that we do. Transformed by the Gospel; we follow the teachings of our Lord and savior, Jesus Christ; and encourage humble and missional living as we anticipate His return.
Our Story
The Kings Church was founded out of a deep calling to plant and cultivate a new faith community in the growing Inland Empire. With a dedicated core team and generous support from Foothill Church in Glendora, Pastor Stephen Coppenrath and his family took a step of faith, moving to Ontario, CA, to establish this new church.
The vision for Kings Church began to take shape in 2020 and culminated in our launch at Colony High School in 2022. Since then, we have grown into a thriving community—launching ministries, building meaningful relationships, and serving local schools and families. With a steadfast commitment to discipleship, biblical teaching, and church planting, we continue to witness lives transformed, baptisms celebrated, and leaders equipped. As we look to the future, we remain grateful for God’s faithfulness and eager for all He has in store for Kings Church.
Watch Katie and Stephen Coppenrath explain the heart behind planting The King’s Church in Ontario.
Values
Discipleship Driven
We will be responsible for one another spiritually. Discipleship will be the agenda of almost every conversation.
Hospitality Based Evangelism
We will open our homes to our friends, families, and neighbors with the intention to share Christ as we break bread together.
Welfare of the City
We will contribute to the flourishing of the city. We will concern ourselves thoughtfully about what happens in our community. We will pray for and support our city leaders, businesses, and schools.
Covenant Community
We will be a New Testament church that practices the one-anothers. We will be committed to one another, care for one another, and submit to one another. We will think covenantly rather than individualistically.
Church Planting
The early church in Acts began as 120 people praying together and has multiplied ever since to millions of Christians today, worldwide. This is a work we are called to join God in. We will not forget our beginnings as a church plant and we want to have a hand in planting as many churches as God will allow.
