(1) A church that loves God and people
(2) A church that live out the gospel of Jesus Christ
Joel 1:14
Let's begin 2016 with a heart for God
Vision and Direction of Grace Assembly is to be Missional, is to be the gospel wherever you are. We are a Missional Family Church.
(A) Love Father God with everything that we have, every ounce of energy. It is an upward focus.
Matthew 22:37-38
(B) Love your family (spiritual & biological), love your enemy, love your neighbour with the supernatural strength and love of God that fills our hearts. It is an inward focus. It is a badge of Christianity.
Matthew 22:39-40
John 13:34-35
(C) Love your friends. It is an outward focus.
Matthew 28:19-20
4 Key trusts that we are embarking on :
(1) Equipping the gracians (to be, then to do)
- Learn the word, live out the word, lead with the word
- Who we are is more important than what we do
- Our character is more important than our charisma
(2) Empowering the families
- Spiritual and biological families
- To be personal not impersonal, neither professional
- High touch not just high tech
- Whatever is your vision for your family at the end of your life journey? Start building it intentionally now!
(3) Engaging the community
(4) Expanding into the world
Paradigm shifts we need to make :
(1) Missional not just ministry. Restore our mission
(2) Alignments not just assignment. Reorder our priorities
(3) Purpose not just performance
(4) Authenticity not just accomplishment
(5) We not just me. Revise our perspective
(6) Him not just us. Recalibrate our agenda
We have just one life, use it for God's Glory!!
