Chris Wall • Matthew 9:35-38

As we Re-focus, the revelation of salvation and God’s purpose of grace is critical to keep the MISSION in our SIGHTS. We believe that a person is made right with God by His grace, through faith in Jesus Christ. This describes the experience of being BORN AGAIN. Saving faith is not just mentally agreeing that Christ, the Cross and the Resurrection took place in history. Saving faith occurs when one is born again. This is the moment of transformation. When God brings about a sanctifying life, guided and empowered by the HOLY SPIRIT resulting in a relying on Christ work on the cross. Every person must face the reality that no one can meet God’s standard on their own, no matter how moral they may be. The narrow gate cannot be entered by partly trusting ourselves and partly trusting God. The gospel calls us to depend completely on Christ alone for salvation. This summarizes the MESSAGE and MISSION God has entrusted our church here, there, and everywhere. Nearly 2,000 years after Jesus’ prayer, we stand as a direct answer, called to be workers in His harvest field. Let's get to work in OUR HARVEST FIELD by keeping this mission always in sight.
