Local Disciple-Making

Jesus has called His church to multiply by making disciples. As His church, we desire to be fully committed to that call in our local context. Our commitment is to regularly gather in groups of various sizes and at various times to help people know, love, and follow Jesus every day.

Global Disciple-Making

Jesus also calls His people to make disciples globally. We desire to mobilize our people and resources for the purpose of supporting existing churches, planting new churches, and positioning frontline disciple-makers around the world. We want to see the gospel of Jesus Christ advanced among all peoples for the glory of God.

The Christian and Governing Authorities

What does honoring God look like in the way we relate to those in authority? In this week's sermon from Romans 13:1–7, Pastor Patrick Austin helps us see that how we live under governing authorities matters deeply to God. Why? Because God appoints those in authority, judges those who resist, and honors those who live with a clear conscience. As followers of Jesus, we’re called to trust His sovereignty, submit to His ultimate authority, and live honorably—even when it’s hard. Watch the replay now and take a fresh look at what it means to live faithfully under God's authority.
