What is Fight Church?

Fight Church is the premier ministry to combat sports. MMA is the fastest-growing sport on the planet—making it one of the largest harvest fields on earth. Based in Las Vegas, Fight Church isn’t about a building; it’s a movement. We don’t operate out of a brick-and-mortar church—we’re out in the gyms, the events, and the everyday battles of life, meeting people where they are.

We’re a ministry built on and for relationships. Our mission is to draw people closer to one another and, ultimately, closer to Jesus Christ. Whether you're in the cage or in the crowd, Fight Church is here to inspire and encourage you to fight for what matters most—your faith, your family, your health, your purpose, and your community.

What Is the Mission of Fight Church?

Our mission is to use the platform of sports chaplaincy to build a bridge between the combat sports community and the local church. Through that bridge, relationships are formed, lives are transformed, and hearts are turned toward Jesus Christ—both in Las Vegas and around the world.

FIGHT CHURCH CORE VALUES

Our #1 value is transformation—changing lives one person at a time for Jesus Christ. We live that out by being:

  • Responsive to God (Proverbs 3:5–6)Listening for and reacting quickly with radical obedience to God's Word and His leading.

  • Relational with One Another (Hebrews 10:24–25)Building authentic community through honesty, encouragement, and transparency.

  • Relevant to the Culture (Acts 17:23–28)Meeting people where they are, listening well, and entering into the conversation.

  • Excellent in All We Do (Colossians 3:17, 23–24)Not a pursuit of perfection, but a commitment to quality and integrity so that everything we do points people to Jesus.

  • We believe the Bible is the inspired, authoritative, and inerrant Word of God. (2 Tim. 3:16)

  • We believe in one God who exists eternally in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (2 Cor. 13:14)

  • We believe Jesus Christ is the living Word of God who fulfilled God’s redemptive plan through His virgin birth, sinless life, atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension, and future return. (Heb. 1:3)

  • We believe the Holy Spirit indwells believers, seals them for God, and empowers them to live godly lives. (John 14:16–17)

  • We believe humanity was created in God’s image, fell through sin, and is in need of redemption. (Rom. 5:6–11)

  • We believe salvation is a gift of grace available to all who place their faith in Jesus Christ. (John 3:14–17)

  • We believe the Church is the global community of believers who express their unity in Christ by loving and serving God, one another, and the world. (Eph. 1:22–23)

FIGHT CHURCH BELIEFS

What Does Fight Church Do?

We believe in being available—always. Chaplaincy in the MMA community means showing up where life happens: at the gym, over the phone, at fight events, or even in the grocery store. We call these moments "God Appointments." We're here 24/7 to build relationships, make connections, and offer spiritual care wherever it's needed.

Fight Church bridges that gap with speakers who connect the fire of the Gospel with men who are looking for something worth fighting for. From MMA-themed sermon topics to training events with fighter testimonies, we tailor experiences that challenge and inspire. Because some things are worth fighting for: your marriage, your family, your faith, your purpose.
