At Life Church we have a vision of Bringing Life to Every Community. The culture of Life Church is how if ‘feels’ while we’re outworking this vision. Our cultural headlines communicate what we are all about and in this special message we hear from the elders what these headlines are, and how they are expressed through what we do as a church.

What is the the ultimate purpose of Man? The Westminster Shorter Catechism answers, 'Man’s chief end is to glorify God, and to enjoy him for ever.' If God himself is the purpose of our lives, how do we choose and prioritise what we say yes to?

Having looked at how far humans have fallen from their original status and purpose as the pinnacle of God’s creation, made to reflect his very image, Esther now looks at how that original status can possibly be restored - and it’s not by anything that can be accomplished by human means!

Although humanity was created as the pinnacle of God’s creation, made in His image, Genesis 3 reveals how corruption and evil entered the world—not through chance or fate, but through our own deliberate choices.

Human beings are distinct in all of creation. Only mankind is made in the image of God. What does this mean for our identity and the way we live life on purpose?

If we try to sort out our own sense of purpose, believing it to be a narrow tightrope we can easily miss, then we place an unhelpful weight of burden on every decision we face. In this series we look to what the Bible teaches about identity, eternity and purpose.

Eustace Tackie-Otoo joins us from Grace Community Church, Sekondi-Takoradi in Ghana. Eustace helps us to see our wider mission as a church belonging to a family of churches like Commission. We see that God's purposes for His church extend way beyond our own immediate activities and area, and the part which we play in all of that.

Here Chris considers how care is outworked both in the broader church community as well as within smaller groups. Abigail also explains how the Life Groups work at Life Church, and the pastoral benefits of belonging to one.

Life is filled with trials of every kind. Only Jesus is the Rock who remains faithful and able to help each of us in times of trouble. We build our lives on Him, the Son of the Living God.

The Bible encourages us to care for one another. In the power of the Holy Spirit, we are called to welcome, encourage, build up and bear with others in love.
