Who We Are

Rooted Spirit Collective is a creative spiritual community and non-traditional church in Dallas, TX for anyone longing for a more authentic, embodied relationship with the sacred. Through art, play, ritual, music, storytelling, and shared experiences, we create space to explore spirituality with curiosity instead of certainty, connection instead of hierarchy, and creativity instead of rigid rules.

Whether you're reconnecting with faith, redefining your spirituality, recovering from religious harm, or simply looking for a community where you can show up as your whole self, you're welcome here.

We believe creativity is a sacred practice, play is a doorway to deeper connection, and spiritual growth happens when we gather with open hearts, open minds, and a willingness to explore together.
