The Mission of the Church

We believe that the church exists to save lost

people and to teach believers so that they might

become mature. Every Christian participates

in the mission of the church.

The church exists to teach everyone concerning Christ and to bring them to saving faith in ​Him. (Matthew 28:19-20) This involves baptizing them into Christ, continuing to teach obedient ​believers until they are built up and established in Him, and ultimately to bring honor to God. ​All Christians are engaged in the mission of the church because the very nature of Christianity ​is missional. We believe that Christianity has an exclusive claim on God – it is the only true ​religion. And, since all have sinned and fallen short (Romans 3:23), only in Christ can salvation ​be found. Consequently, out of our consciousness of the world’s desperate need for salvation ​and in obedience to the command of Christ to “make disciples of all nations,” every Christian is ​engaged in the mission of the church.
