Radiant Church

What Radiant Church does

Radiant Church is a 501(c)(3) non-denominational, Spirit-filled Christian church headquartered at 12140 W 135th St in Overland Park, Kansas, serving the Kansas City metropolitan area. Founded in 2016 by Lead Pastors David and Renata Perkins after relocating from Colorado Springs, the church operates weekly Sunday worship services at 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM, a Wednesday evening prayer service at 6:30 PM, and an ecosystem of life-stage ministries including Radiant Kids (nursery through 5th grade), Bold Youth (grades 6-12, meeting Mondays), Bold Young Adults (ages 18-29), and Radiant Marriage pre-marital services. The congregation is organized around 30+ active small groups spanning Bible studies, fitness, men's and women's cohorts, and demographic-specific segments across the metro.

The church delivers programming through a permanent facility purchased in 2022, augmented by a digital infrastructure stack consisting of the Church Center platform (registrations, giving, group management), YouTube livestream, Spotify podcast distribution, and active social media presence across Instagram and Facebook. Operating with a lean paid staff of 9 employees, Radiant relies on a 256-member Dream Team volunteer program organized across 16 service categories including worship, production, hospitality, children's ministry, security, small groups, and outreach. Annual flagship programming centers on the Bold Conference, a three-day national youth and young adult conference that draws attendees from across the country and functions as a brand extension beyond the local market.

Revenue is generated primarily through voluntary tithes and offerings from congregation members via online, text-to-give, and in-person channels, supplemented by non-cash donations (cryptocurrency, stocks, real estate, vehicles, Donor Advised Funds) and registration fees from events such as the Bold Conference. The church operates a community-led go-to-market approach with no paid acquisition; outreach depends on word-of-mouth referrals, a "Plan Your Visit" intake flow, and the Radiant Connect three-week membership class delivered on the first three Sundays of each month. ECFA accreditation provides external validation of financial stewardship, and strategic partnerships with Convoy of Hope (national disaster relief) and Every Home for Christ (global missions) extend operational reach.
