Our Mission
Our mission is pretty straightforward. You could say that it's about the four Fs:
Helping people Find Jesus, Then Follow Jesus as they become Fruitful disciples and Faithful witnesses.
It's corny, but true!
Finding Jesus is about the experience of having a relationship with God. Lots of us grow up believing things about God and about Jesus but not knowing Him personally. We go through life trying to fill up on good things like the new house, the bigger boat, the career, the family, always feeling empty, like something is missing. Personally finding Jesus Christ is the starting point of the incredible adventure of life that God has for each of us. And for this life, now, not just on the other side of the grave!
Following Jesus is about beginning to experience life in a new way. We learn to see where He leads us in our relationships, our work, our everyday lives. We find the purpose for which God has made us, and see that God is a lot closer to us than we ever thought.
As Fruitful disciples, we serve the people around us. What God is doing in each of us spills out as we share that incredible love in practical ways. Starting right at home with our closest relationships and beyond to people we may have never met, we see our lives being used by God to touch others in powerful ways.
As Faithful witnesses, we answer the question, "What difference does this Jesus stuff mean for you?" Our stories of what Christ has done in us become a powerful tool that God uses to help bring others into the new life that we have found. Like witnesses on the stand, our stories become the hard evidence that others use as they seek to find Jesus in the same way that we did.
