Vision Sunday 2019
Our vision is to form biblically functioning communities that reach lost people, connect in Christ-centered relationships, teach truth, serve others, and worship God.
Looking back is wonderful to the extent that it helps us recognize where God has been at work; however, that is not the full story of what this year’s Vision Sunday holds. Looking forward is what vision is about. Vision is about answering the question: “Where are we going and how are we getting there?” As a church, we are on a multi-year journey toward uniquely framing the church’s timeless vision in the very particular time and place that God has us. This Vision Sunday, we will certainly look ahead to how we build meaningful service, ethnic and generational diversity, and new expressions of the church but that is not at the heart of this year’s Vision Sunday. The heart of this year’s Vision Sunday is the heart. It is a look inside—an opportunity to examine our motives and loyalties in front of a God whose highest call on our lives is to love him above all else.
