Belief Barriers: Nearsightedness - 05.02.2021

We prioritize the gospel above all.The gospel is the anchor for all that we do and shapes every aspect of our mission. We seek to remove distractions from the gospel making it as clear and compelling as possible.We do whatever it takes to reach all people.In the parable of the lost sheep, Jesus said there would be more rejoicing over one sinner who repented than of the 99 who were already in the fold. Because He prioritized those outside the fold in His ministry, we prioritize them in ours. We consider what we can do to bring the gospel to more people.We make disciples, not just converts.The final command Jesus gave His disciples was to make disciples, teaching them to observe all that He had commanded. We realize that heaven does not count professions of faith; heaven counts disciples of Jesus. We are committed to helping people find and follow Jesus.We send every member.Calling is not a special experience for a sacred few. It is a basic element of the Christian life. When believers accept Jesus, they accept His call to join Him in His mission. The question is not if our people are sent on mission, but when and where.
