WHY WE EXIST AS A CHURCH

 

Some Churches Are Driven By:

 

T Tradition

P Personality

F Finances

P Programs

B Buildings

S Seekers

 

We believe that a Great Commitment to the Great Commission and the Great Commandment will grow a Great Church.

 

What Drives Our Church?

The two-fold purpose of our church is summarized in a single sentence  based on two key statements of Jesus:

 

The Great Commission:

"Jesus said, 'Go and make disciples of aïi nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.'” Matthew 28 : 19-20a

 

The Great Commandment:

"Jesus said, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart... soul... And mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself. All the Law and Prophets hang on these two commandments.”

Matthew 22: 36-40
