OUR MISSION

Glorifying God through the power of the Gospel by:
“Growing in Christ, Serving in Love, and Equipping for Life”

 

Jesus
 
Jesus builds his church. The church at the beginning of the twenty-first century can only make progress by returning to the first century. Our reason for existence is to become the church one can read about in the Bible. Our plea is to be just Christians.
This does not arise out of an arrogant self-righteousness on our part, but an earnest desire for religious unity based completely on the Bible. We do not ask for man’s allegiance to a human organization or system, only to Jesus Christ. Our task is to call men and women everywhere back to God’s eternal Word. It is our only guide.
People
 
The focus of our faith is upon the person of Jesus Christ. He is our Savior and our Lord. Only through His sacrificial death on the cross are we able to live in relationship with our Holy God. And that, incidentally, is why we wear His name. The “Church of Christ” is not a title used in a sectarian sense, but is intended to communicate our desire to belong fully to Christ.
 
We strive to be very aware of needs and opportunities for service in the area as first century Christianity to the modern world.
Spirit
 
Spiritual growth and development are difficult in a world that has too many answers to the same question. It would help to understand the question rather than just be told the answer. We have in-depth discussions of Scripture and life and how the two fit together. To be effective, the Bible must be practical and to be meaningful, life must have a spiritual element. We are not afraid to ask tough questions and find real answers.
