I’m Dominic Encinias, leader at THEHEART. I’m originally from Santa Fe, New Mexico but I’ve lived in Texas for the last 30 years, and did all of my growing up in San Antonio so I have a deep love for the Spurs. Basketball is something that I really enjoy playing, in real life and XBOX with my son. I love watching the NBA and being able to take my fam to Spurs games.
At THEHEART, we have some really meaningful core values, one of which is Choice. Choice is the value that connects with me the most because it’s what allows everything else to happen. I feel that choice makes our relationship with God so powerful, it’s what gives depth to faith. And, we need to choose to be a part of community.
In 2016, my wife Amber and my son Korben decided to gather with a few great friends and start a church community called THEHEART. We’ve been on a wild journey of grace and hope since. We’ve gained so much along the way and the best is yet to come.One of my favorite things to say about our community is, “You don’t have to go to church here to go to church here.” I love being a part of a church community where people can have a sense of belonging before they are required to believe what we believe.
