Who We Are

We believe Durham is a city of divine opportunity. In prayer and discernment, God has called us to establish a church where the disconnected find belonging, the broken find healing, and the overlooked discover purpose. We are not just building a church — we are building people and shaping a healthier, stronger Durham. Led by Pastor Jeremiah and Lady Shamyrah Davis, under the spiritual covering of Dr. Aaron and Lady Ashley McNair, I3-Church is being launched with intentionality, excellence, and the heart of heaven.
What Is Our Vision
To Ignite Disciples means we are intentional about discipleship that is alive, active, and Spirit empowered. We seek to move people beyond surface level faith into a growing, vibrant relationship with Jesus Christ. Discipleship at i3-Church involves teaching sound doctrine, cultivating spiritual disciplines, and developing believers who live out their faith daily. Igniting disciples creates believers who are grounded in truth, passionate in worship, and committed to spiritual growth and obedience.
To Inspire Purpose means helping individuals discover and embrace the unique calling God has placed on their lives. i3-Church believes every person is created with divine intention and assignment. Through preaching, teaching, mentorship, and service opportunities, we help people identify their gifts, clarify their purpose, and confidently walk in their God given identity. When purpose is inspired, believers move from passive participation to intentional engagement in God’s work.
To Impact Lives means our faith must produce visible and meaningful transformation. i3-Church is committed to making a difference both within the church and beyond its walls. We measure success not only by what happens in our services, but by changed lives, strengthened families, transformed communities, and the advancement of the Kingdom of God. This vision compels us to serve, to give, to love, and to lead with excellence so that the power of Christ is demonstrated through tangible impact everywhere we are planted.
