Living A BIBLICAL DNA
But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
James 1:22
WHO WILL YOU IMITATE
WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE
WHERE ARE YOU GOING
WHEN WILL YOU KNOW
WHY DO YOU SERVE
HOW WILL YOU LOVE
WE ARE
GOING
Jesus said to go and make disciples of all nations. We take that commission seriously. It's our mission.
From the porches of our next door neighbors to the mountain villages of Thailand, from the African Savannah to the rural towns of Southern Appalachia, we are always looking for opportunities to GO! and share the gospel of Jesus Christ.
"Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age." Matthew 28:19-20
Jesus loves the little children and so do we! From birth to 5th grade, your child will learn from the Bible and have fun in a safe and monitored environment.
From 6th grade, until they graduate, our youth are discipled according to five principles.
-
Friendship - God did not intend for Christians to live in isolation, but in fellowship with other believers and to be identified as the body of Christ.
-
Evangelism - Sharing the good news of Jesus Christ with those who do not yet have a personal relationship with Him.
-
Adoration - Celebrating God's presence and honoring Him with our lifestyle.
-
Service - Meeting all needs with love.
-
Teaching - Building up/strengthening believers in their attempt to be like Christ.
"Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 19:14
WE ARE
DISCIPLING
WE ARE Equipping
If God has called you to serve or lead in your local congregation, you need training. There are many good
options available for minister and leadership training. Many of those options, however, simply do not fit
into the budget or schedule of those wanting to serve. A certificate in Pastoral Ministry or Church Leadership from Crossroads School of Ministry solves these problems.
