That statement sums up who we are and what we are about.  By faith in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, we are family.  Church is a family.  It’s not a business. It’s not an organization. It is a family of faith where every member matters.  And as a family, we aim to bring glory to God in everything that we do.  The highest aim of mankind is to glorify God in everything, not just what takes place at a church service, but what takes place in our workplaces, our neighborhoods, our homes, what we do with our time, our resources, and our bodies.  In all that we do, we seek to bring glory to God and also hope to the world. 

We live in a world that desperately needs to know who God is, His love and grace and truth.  We believe God wants His church to be a light to the nations, showing others the way back to God.  We believe when God blesses us, it is so we can bless others.  The church is both called out of the world to be with God and also sent into the world, that the world might know God.  We seek to glorify God and bring hope to the world and we do all of this by helping people know and follow Jesus.  This is the discipleship focus of what we are about.  Jesus told His followers to go make disciples and go help people know Jesus and follow all that He commanded. 

We believe as we do that, as we help every man, woman, and child know and follow Jesus, what will happen is God will be glorified, people will find hope and our faith family will be filled with ever-increasing joy!
