 Visions-Values
| Life is a
Journey |
 | Our Purpose - Our Vision |
Life Spring Community Church is a community of
people on a spiritual journey from being unconvinced concerning the
reality of Jesus Christ to becoming His fully devoted follower in an
environment where we can be challenged to take the next step in our
journey in an atmosphere of love and acceptance. |
| Our Philosophy |
|
1.
Individuals Matter -
People are priority ONE: For the Son of Man came to SEEK AND TO
SAVE THE LOST.
Luke 19:10 (RSV)
The Lord is patient with you, NOT WANTING ANYONE TO PERISH, but
everyone to come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:9 (NIV)
Go out onto the country and URGE ANYONE YOU FIND TO COME IN, so that
My House will be full. Luke 14:23 (TLB) |
2.
Jesus is the answer: Whatever
challenges we face stem from our disconnection with God. Jesus
reconnects us.
Jesus answered, "I AM
THE WAY AND THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE, No one comes to the Father except
through me.
John 14:6 (NIV) |
3.
Authentic Christianity: We seek to be real and honest with one another
in our struggles and our victories.
Instead, SPEAKING THE TRUTH IN LOVE, we will in all things grow up
into him who is the Head, that is Christ.
Ephesians 4:15 (NIV)
God is spirit, and his
worshipers must WORSHIP IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH. John 4:24 (NIV) |
4.
Growth occurs through Small Groups:
True spiritual growth occurs in small groups of connected caring
followers of Christ. Then Jesus came to them and said, "All
authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me, Therefore go
and MAKE DISCIPLES of all nations, baptizing them tin the name of the
Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and
TEACHING THEM TO OBEY everything I have commanded you, And surely I am
with you always, to the very end of age.
Matthew 28: 18-20 (NIV) |
5.
God is worthy of Excellence, We give God are very best. GREAT IS
THE LORD and most WORTHY OF PRAISE; his
greatness no one can fathom. Psalm 145:3 (NIV) |
|
