Being God's Church:GATHER - As His church we come together in genuine community to acknowledge & worship the very real and present God together, we celebrate, encourage, disciple and then GO...
GO - And as His church, we are told to GO into the world. "Your" world consists of the places you frequent on a daily basis (gas stations, grocery stores, your neighborhood, workplace), in other words, the community in which you live. Engage and interact as united difference-makers offering hope to those around you. When it's evident that you really do care then they will begin to care about what (Who) you know ("Christ in you, the hope of glory" - Col 1:27). |
The Challenge:making the GO practical by making Jesus real to the marginalized, to your community, to the world
what's a need God has made evident in your community? rally the Church (across denominations) in your community to come together and meet that need...its the Church as a whole reflecting the wholeness of God's redemption! |
