When we begin to examine what we believe about our faith, we soon
discover that God has been writing a story from the beginning
of time. An Epic story of hope and redemption for all the world; a
story where God is restoring all that was lost to the way He intended it to
be. And it becomes evident that we ALL have a role to play in this
story.
Epic is an emergent community devoted to living out this story the
best way possible, led by the Spirit that God gives us. It’s a journey that
we can not make alone. At Epic, we are committed to live our lives
connected to the Lord, with each other, and with the world around us.
We don’t see Epic as a typical church plant, but as a way of life together
celebrating faith, Jesus, uniqueness, diversity, change, unity and rest. It’
s a journey that is constantly changing us, and one that we
believe can change the world.
What is Epic?
What if Jesus’ parables were told to make a specific point? And what if that point was...If you think you've got it all figured out... think again?

There is NO PLAN B!!! God has always chosen to work through His people to bring a message of repentance, hope
and restoration. Have you wanted to make a difference in this world but felt that you were coming up against barriers from
all around you? It’s time for the barriers to come down. In a world full of poverty and hopelessness, we recognize that God has
blessed us in order to bless the rest of the world. Our goal at Epic is to mobilize everyone to be actively engaged in
God’s work NOW.
Kelly Lyon is married to Jan and they have three children, Jordan, Nick, and Chloe.
Kelly was born in the Amazon Jungle of Peru, where his parents worked with
Wycliffe Bible Translators. Growing up among this unique missionary community is
where he developed a love for cultures, scripture, flying, good coffee and a world in
great need.
Kelly went to Oral Roberts University, where he majored in Communications and met
his wife Jan. During this time of adjustment to life in the United States, Kelly became
convinced that he would spend the rest of his life in Peru where good coffee and
revolution seem to co-exist rather well.
His love for flying led him back to the United States for years of devotion to aviation and mobilizing people to be
involved in making a difference in the world. Kelly currently consults for an aviation trade association. That’s the
short story.
Kelly's life has provided him the opportunity to see God working around the world. His passion is to teach scripture in
a way that connects people to a deeper understanding of God's heart for the entire world. He hopes to always be involved in
encouraging and mobilizing people to become involved in God's Epic story.
“God is in the slums, in the cardboard boxes where the poor play house. God is in the silence of a mother who has infected her child with a virus that will end both their lives. God is in the cries heard under the rubble of war. God is in the debris of wasted opportunity and lives, and God is with us if we are with them." -Bono
