Our Strategy is the "The One -Five - Four Principle".

   
  The One Driving Force is the "Great Commission" -- Matthew 28:18-20.

     18 And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 "teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Amen. Matt 28:18-20 (NKJV) 

We fulfill the Great Commission by living out the "Five Functions"

  • Evangelism – Sharing the gospel
     

  • Discipleship – Learning more about God and His plan for our lives
     

  • Ministry – Ministering to those around us
     

  • Fellowship – spending quality time with other believers
     

  • Worship – worshipping the Lord privately and publicly

     

We trust God to produce "Four Results"

  • Numerical Growth
     

  • Spiritual Growth
     

  • Ministries expansion
     

  • Kingdom advance
