WE ARE A CHURCH THAT SEES DIFFERENTLY.
A Spirit-filled, justice-rooted, radically welcoming community called Eyes Wide Open Christian Church.
Eyes Wide Open Christian Church exists to help people see life through God's eyes — with radical love, intentional inclusion, spiritual power, and social responsibility. We are not just a Sunday church. We are a movement shaping lives every day.
Our Theological DNA
At the heart of Eyes Wide Open is a powerful way of living called Careful Carelessness — God’s careful love for us frees us to love others carelessly.

A Church for the Wounded, the Searching & the Hopeful
Eyes Wide Open Christian Church is a liberation-driven, Spirit-filled, justice-oriented community where people from every background are seen, valued, and restored.
We are rooted in the prophetic Black church tradition and open wide to every generation and ethnicity. We believe that true spirituality isn't just about what happens in the sanctuary, but what happens in the streets, in our homes, and in our hearts.

Rev. Terrence D. Sims, M.Div.
With over 20 years of ministry and 30 years of executive leadership, Pastor Terrence leads with prophetic clarity, compassion, and courage — bridging liberation theology, spiritual power, and everyday transformation.
