Our vision: Pointing Others to Christ by growing to be like him through his word as a family. 

That looks like...

1 - Pointing Others to Christ
We exist to display and point others to the supreme greatness of God revealed in Jesus. (Psalm 85:9; Matt. 5:16; 1 Cor. 6:19-20; 1 Peter 2:9) 

2 - By Growing to be like Him
We accomplish this task by dying daily to our sinful ways and growing daily to think, love, and work like Jesus more and more. (2 Cor. 3:18; Ephesians 4:15; Heb. 6:1-2; 1 Peter 2:2; 2 Peter 3:18)

3 - Through His Word
This growth happens as we submit to the Holy Spirit's application of the Bible to our lives. (Acts 20:32; 2 Tim. 3:15-17; Heb. 4:12)

4 - As a family
This reliance on the Word of God occurs in the context of a faith family, in which the more mature "parent" disciples the newer believers until they can do the same. (John 17:21; Col. 1:28; 1 Tim. 2:2; Heb. 13:1; 1 John 1:3)
