The Chapel is a non-denominational Christian church in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin welcoming people of all faiths, or of no faith background at all. Our hope is to help people everywhere come alive to God, an idea the Bible describes as revival. Revival is simply when any group of people, anywhere on earth, at any point in time reaches towards heaven in order to experience all of God, in all of them, for all the world. That’s us! Reaching towards heaven for more of God together. Regardless of who you are or where you’ve been, if you’re ready for more of God in your life, you’ve found a home at The Chapel.

The first step to freedom from anxiety is telling the truth about how we are really doing. It sounds simple, but oftentimes it is easier to pretend everything is ok than to face the emotional, relational, or spiritual risks that come with telling the truth. When we emotionally connect with ourselves, it can feel overwhelming. In 2 Corinthians 12:9, the Lord says, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” This is the upside-down nature of the kingdom. When we are weak and live in the reality of our weakness, we become strong because it creates space for God. Authentically and regularly sharing all our fears, worries, and concerns with God is the number one thing we can do to break the hold of anxiety in our lives. We can’t fake it till we make it, and God isn’t asking us to. He asks us to bring him all that is weighing us down and say, “I’m not ok. I need you.”
