We are children of God first, ministers to people second, leaders third.
Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age." - Matt 28:19-20
We accomplish this by living out our values. We gather to provide experiences, worship opportunities that are meaningful, practical, and fun; so that we might engage the community around us, being "salt and light" as the Body of Christ.
On our website, we tell people to expect "Friendly people, great coffee, awesome music & weekly teachings that are practical, understandable, relatable and funny…. You can also expect to smile & be glad you came.."
What is the general condition from your perspective?
General condition from my perspective is we are limping along & there needs to be greater buy in & ownership
How do you feel we are doing?
I feel in some ways we are doing well... some people are experiencing growth & good life change, but organizationally we are not in good shape. Turn over and poor leadership on my part has left us in a tough spot.
