Life is made up of relationships. And nowhere is that tested more than in the realm of our family life. Family can be both a blessing and a challenge. The choices that we make and the responses that we choose make a profound difference on the condition of our family life. Join us through this series entitled Real Faith for Real Families! Bring a Bible and a friend as we take a look at how real and how practical the Bible can be in speaking to our modern families!

CONNECTION
First we want to help people to Connect with God on an authentic basis. This is not about religious conformity or plastic clichés. No, we want people…people far from God, and people who have known Him for decades to move in close for a real, personal, and intimate relationship with Him. |
COMMUNITY
Next, we want to encourage and equip people to move into a Community with Others. We need each other. Yet, for past hurts, broken trust, or personal issues, we tend to keep others at a distance. Real community, though, is the place that God has created for us to experience the journey of life. It is here that we share each other’s burdens, victories, and love. |
COMPASSION
The third leg of our mission is to share Compassion with our Community. We cannot be obedient to our calling to follow Jesus Christ until we have engaged in genuine action and compassion for the least, the last, and the lost. So, we will seek to be the hands, feet, mouth, ears, and heart of Jesus to a hurting world around us. We must show them that there is a loving Savior who loves them and cares deeply for them. |
