Vision, Purpose & Practice

What we do, Why we do it, What it looks like


Our Vision:

To worship, glorify, and share the good news of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ

Our calling from Acts 20:32: ‘I place you in God’s hands and in the care of His word, which builds you up and promises you an eternal inheritance…”

We believe God calls us to worship Him with devotion, love one another deeply, and guide others closer to Jesus. Our goal is to equip you by teaching the Bible clearly, from Genesis to Revelation.

Our Purpose

Jesus said to His disciples: “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and surely I am with you always, even to the very end of the age.” Matthew 28:18-20

We want to be obedient to Jesus and help you tell others about the good news of forgiveness of sins through Jesus, help others grow closer to Jesus, and be equipped in the community. We do that by:

1. WorshipWe honor and glorify the Lord through song, study, service, and sacrifice.
2. Discipleship – We inspire and guide others to grow in their faith and follow Jesus.
3. Evangelism We share the love of Jesus and introduce Him to those who don’t yet know Him.

It’s all about Jesus! Not about religion, but a personal relationship with God and life in His Kingdom. We simply love God and love people!

Our Practice

The church in its beginning “continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers. Praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved.” Acts 2:42, 47

As servants of the Lord, we seek to continue in the blessings He has given to His church. Our practice is centered on four key aspects:

1. Doctrine: We prioritize learning from the Bible, recognizing its living and powerful nature. We make time for personal Bible reading and communal study, believing that God’s Word is the foundation of our faith and equips us for life and service (Ephesians 4:11-12, 2 Timothy 3:16-17, Acts 20:27).

“Simply teaching the Bible Simply”. We teach the Bible in an expository fashion, verse by verse, chapter by chapter, and book by book, ensuring that we understand and apply its teachings in context (Nehemiah 8:8, Acts 20:27, Hebrews 4:12).

2. Fellowship (koinōnia): We cultivate a bond that often surpasses natural family ties, united by our common fellowship with Jesus (Matthew 12:46, Luke 14:26). As a spiritual family, we care for one another, share life’s experiences, and encourage each other, recognizing our unity in God’s grace (Hebrews 10:24-25, 1 Corinthians 12:12-27, 1 Peter 4:10).

3. Breaking of Bread: We joyfully invite others to share meals with us, fostering connections and celebrating the Lord’s Supper (Acts 2:46, 1 Corinthians 11:23-26). In communion, we remember Jesus’ sacrifice and resurrection, expressing gratitude for God’s mercy.

4. Prayer: We delight in praying to God, trusting Him, and interceding for one another. Recognizing prayer as a vital aspect of spiritual warfare, we rely on its power to shape our lives and ministries (Ephesians 6:10-20, 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18).

This fourfold practice enables us to devote ourselves to God and cultivate a fellowship that honors Him. This is all we’ve got…but this is all we really need.
