In January of 2004 Nate Ferguson was given the charge by First Christian Church of Morris, Illinois to plant a daughter church in the neighboring communities of Minooka & Channahon. Knowing he would have limited resources and staff, Nate (Dave and Jon’s long lost cousin) met with Jon and Dave Ferguson to see if he could tap into the NewThing BIG IDEA creative teaching and worship content. Nate wanted “big church” excellence for his small church plant from opening Sunday. The NewThing team agreed and The Village Christian Church (TVCC) joined the NewThing Network. Nate and TVCC’s arts minister, Jared Baker, began attending NewThing’s BIG IDEA meetings in the summer of 2004. TVCC started October, 2004 with a core group of 50 people. TVCC now averages 232 people and expanded to two services in the fall of 2006.
