Partnerships

 

The Christian life was never intended to be lived out independently. The very essence of being a follower of Jesus Christ is loving God and loving others while growing together into the family of God. The Church was never intended to operate in isolation from other churches around the world. There is one “C”hurch in the world with many “c”hurches all over the world. We believe that healthy church partnerships and strategic church planting are essential for building the church and faithfully carrying out God’s mission on earth. We are not anti-denominational, but we do see a more biblical model for church partnership represented in the New Testament that can be represented by four key commitments:

Shared Relationship •  Shared Vision •  Shared Gifts •  Shared Mission

We believe we can do more together and that we are better and more healthy as we work together to see healthy churches grow and multiple throughout the world.

So, what does this partnership look like? It basically is like a family that lives in three different cities. We gather as often as possible in person or virtually for prayer, equipping, strengthening, encouraging and for developing deeper relationship. We spend time praying and listening for the voice of God that we might share vision together. We send people back and forth to use their gifts to equip and bless the Body. And we are praying and expecting to go on mission together to serve and plant other healthy churches that we can partner with so that the family will grow to more cities and nations.
