A Spiritual Family Living in God's Larger Story

We believe that the local church is God's hope for the world. He frequently refers to the church as his "family." It is God's desire that his family be equipped to pursue spiritual life together through a real life engagement with God's Word. That is why we prioritize the teaching of the Bible in weekly gatherings and also discipleship in the Bible through our small discipleship groups that we call "Missional Communities." We believe that as God's family we have been offered to live a completely new kind of life story; a story of close fellowship with him and his family as we partner with him to redeem and restore his precious lost image bearers back to the abundant living in his family.

Learn About Missional Communities

Local : Missional Communities

We have chosen to develop simple strategies to equip our church to pursue the mission of making disciples in our local region. This is primarily accomplished through the forming and equipping of small groups of believers who can grow together as they pursue God's mission of making disciples of His lost image bearers. We call these communities "Missional Communities". These communities of believers that are formed around God's mission are the heartbeat of our church and are the exclusive focus of how (means) and where (context) we pursue God's mission

Global: Missional Partners

On the global level, we desire to be faithful to God's expressed mission of making disciples of peoples through the local church. Our commitment is to establish meaningful partnerships with local churches; either through planting them ourselves, or partnering with existing churches that are carrying our God's mission. We call these "Missional Partners ". We have had the privilege of doing both pioneer church planting in Papua New Guinea and partnering with an existing local church in South America. We are also in the process of sending a couple to serve in mission aviation through our existing local church partnership in South America.
