Join us beginning September 10th, as we look at questions like….

    suffering?
·   If Christ is the only way to heaven, what about
    people who have never heard of Christ?
·   Don’t all religions basically teach the same
    thing?
·   Aren’t all religions human attempts to reach the
    same spiritual truth?
·   Why should I believe in God when Christians
    have caused so many problems throughout
    history?

    /judgmental/holier than thou?

On Mission



Our purpose as a church is to...

“reach people for Christ and get them grounded, growing and on mission”.



In this post we’re going to look at what it means to be “on mission”


Someone who is on mission for Christ…




1) Makes a commitment to the body of Christ
.

Scripture says that we’re all members of one body –the body of Christ (1 Corinthians 12) Someone who is on mission for Christ recognizes the importance of the body of Christ and makes a commitment to play their part as members of Christ’s church.



2) Makes a contribution to the cause of Christ.
The Bible says that Christ’s ministry is done as each person plays their part (Eph 4:16) Someone who is on mission for Christ eagerly seeks to make a contribution to the cause of Christ. (1 Peter 4:10).



3) Pursues their unique role in the mission of Christ.

God has given us each a unique life purpose in the mission of Christ. Each person is created on purpose and for a purpose. As Ephesians 2:10 says, “…we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do”. Someone who is on mission wants to discover and do those “good works” which God has prepared in advance. An “on mission” follower of Jesus desires to understand and increasingly prioritize their life around their God-given role in the cause of Christ.|
