Our Core Purposes

RESPOND

We are created to relate with God - hardwired for relationship with Him. In every moment He calls to us and leads us, waiting for us to RESPOND.

"I urge you...to present yourselves a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God...a spiritual service of worship. Do not be conformed to the patterns of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is-that which is good and acceptable and perfect."
The Apostle Paul writing to the Romans (12:1,2)

BELONG

Every one of us desires to be part of a community - to experience what it means to play a vital role in the lives of others. We all seek and need to BELONG.

"They were continually devoting themselves to the apostles' teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone kept feeling a sense of awe: and many wonders and signs were taking place through the apostles. And all those who had believed were together and had all things in common."
Luke recording the early Church in Acts (2:42-44)

RELEASE

Each of us is uniquely created - handcrafted by God for purposes that only we can fulfill. Talents and abilities reside within us seeking the opportuntity to RELEASE.

"Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are varieties of ministries, and the same Lord. There are varieties of effects, but the same God who works all things in all persons. But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. But one and the same Spirit works all things, distributing to each one individually just as He wills."
Paul, in his first letter to the Corinthians (12:4-7, 11)

BECOME

A perfect God transforming imperfect people - that's what spiritual growth is all about. The Holy Spirit meets us where we are at and leads us into a deeper expression of what we will BECOME.

"As those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience; bearing with one another, forgiving each other...put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts...Let the word of Christ dwell richly within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another."
Paul, instructing the Colossians (3:12-17)

REACH

The transformation Jesus accomplishes within us is too large to contain - and far too compelling to remain silent about. We look outward and extend our REACH.

"Jesus spoke to them, saying 'All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you."
Jesus' final instructions, recorded by Matthew (28:18-20)
