"Our vision is simply to establish groups that love God and love their neighbors, encouraging them to become more like Jesus.”

We envision a community that seeks to experience, and respond to, the heart of God. We believe that God desires to draw people UPWARD into a relationship with Him; that He desires women and men to “participate in the divine nature.” In being drawn into God Himself, we will begin to experience the community of the triune Godhead, the INWARD life of fellowship with other “members of God’s household.” As God continues to share with us His very nature, we will begin to experience His broken heart for this world. As God the Son came to “seek and save the lost,” we too will live our lives OUTWARD in a reflection of our Lord’s selfless love for this world. God imparts His very Spirit to us, indwelling and empowering us; as we experience this, we too will begin to live our lives FORWARD, pouring out into others that which has been poured into us.

Our purpose is to equip people to...

...Love God (Upward) -“Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.” Matthew 22:37

...Love People (Inward) - "Love your neighbor as yourself." Matthew 22:39

...Make Disciples (Outward) - "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit." Matthew 28:19

...Mature Disciples (Forward) - "teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you." Matthew 28:20

We envision a church of people who aren’t content to “play” church; who are willing to sacrifice everything they are and have for God; people whose repentance burns with a deep longing for God, who deal with sin in their lives according to Jesus words (Matthew 5:29-30); people who have a deep and sincere love for others that flows naturally into community transforming acts of blessing, and whose hearts break for the hurting, hopeless, downtrodden, outsiders of our community and our world; people who understand the centrality of community to life in the Kingdom; people who are committed to the plan for global redemption left to us by Jesus (Matthew 28:18-20); a personal commitment to being a disciple of Jesus, and to raising disciples (who will raise others, etc.); a vision of God’s Kingdom that encompasses all of creation, and not merely a near-sighted focus on “our” lives or “our” church.

Enter into one of our Discipleship Groups where we can seek the transforming Presence of Christ in our midst; allowing His Spirit access to our lives to accomplish His purposes for the world around us.

Feel free to contact the individual group leaders directly, or contact the church, if you want information about how to be a part of one of these communities.
