To see every person, from the core
of our church to the ever-growing community, connected
in a healthy small group.
“You can develop a healthy, robust community that
lives right with God and enjoy its results only if you
do the hard work of getting along with each other, treating
each other with dignity and honor.” James 3:18 (MSG)
To help spiritual seekers become
deeply devoted followers of Christ who model Purpose
Driven Lives and motivate others to do the same.
With Heart
“I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd puts
the sheep before himself, sacrifices himself if necessary.
A hired man is not a real shepherd. The sheep mean nothing
to him. He sees a wolf come and runs for it, leaving the
sheep to be ravaged and scattered by the wolf. He's only
in it for the money. The sheep don't matter to him.” John
10:11-13 (MSG)
With Compassion
“He felt great pity for the crowds that came, because
their problems were so great and they didn't know where
to go for help. They were like sheep without a shepherd.
He said to his disciples, "The harvest is so great,
but the workers are so few. So pray to the Lord who is
in charge of the harvest; ask him to send out more workers
for his fields." Matthew 9:36-38 (NLT)
With Motivation
“Sooner or later we'll all have to face God, regardless
of our conditions. We will appear before Christ and take
what's coming to us as a result of our actions, either
good or bad.” 2 Corinthians 5:10 (MSG)
