4th SUNDAY OF EPIPHANY

Mission of the Church #3 – Discipleship

After people join us for worship, then get more connected through fellowship, our mission is to help them Love God more deeply through Discipleship. The root of this word is the picture of the 12 Disciples learning from Jesus how to live in his Kingdom. But how do we do that in 2012? This is a vital piece of the mission because as Jesus says, unless you are a disciple, you are not a true follower.

6th SUNDAY OF EPIPHANY

Mission Statement Series #4 - Outreach

What does the word “outreach” say to you? In years gone by we have used the word “evangelism” or the word “witnessing”. What do these things relate to? Jesus gave us a mission that all people might come to know him, and there is no shortage of Christian lingo to describe that. But what exactly should we do in 2012?

7th SUNDAY OF EPIPHANY

Generosity Series #1 – Stewardship

A. W. Tozer called it “The Blessedness of Possessing Nothing.” You might ask, how is that possible? Everyone has something they own, if at least the shirt on their back, right? What Tozer was talking about is called stewardship. And stewardship is the biblical foundation of generosity. We are stewards of our time, talent and treasure. So we’ll learn what implications that has for how we should use them.
