Vision Statement
(Who is God calling us to reach?)

In this uncertain time, people today are searching for something "real." They want something that helps them make sense of a world that doesn't make sense. God is calling us to help draw those seekers to Him, connecting those searching people with the redeeming and healing power of His son, Jesus Christ.

God is calling us to help the disconnected connect with Him through a fellowship of believers who are seeking meaning and personal relationships with Jesus Christ. In this way, all may have a new beginning. People find meaning as they connect with a relevant God. We help people make those connections by making the love of God practical. We help people experience God's love by meeting the needs they feel.

These searches include those who have never heard of Jesus and those who have lost a connection with God due to boring worship, religious abuse, irrelevant church ministries, and personal tragedy. In order to connect with Jesus Christ, the individuals need more than entertaining worship services. These individuals need active spiritual growth and development opportunities, in safe and comfortable companionship with others. Healing and spiritual growth will take place primarialy in small groups where Jesus' redemptive love is made personal.

Because the blessings of God multiply when shared, we seek to multiply God's kingdom through several avenues. Through evangelism, we foster the multiplication of God's children. Through the multiplication of small groups, we encourage the spiritual development and accountability for all who seek God. Through church multiplication, God provides opportunities to expand His kingdom.
