The Purpose of our church is to glorify God.
The Mission of our church is to glorify God by loving Him supremely
while evangelizing others, incorporating those who believe into the
fellowship of the local church, teaching them to live in obedience
to God’s Word, and equipping them to use their spiritual gifts in
service to others.
The Vision of our church is to endeavor to:
- exalt God and strive to grow in love and adoration of Him;
- teach the doctrines of the Word of God in an in-depth
fashion and apply them in meaningful ways to everyday life;
- study, memorize, and meditate on Scripture personally so
that we may put off sinfulness and put on Christlikeness;
- proclaim the good news of Christ’s death, burial, and
resurrection to Peoria and the whole world;
- disciple new converts by investing our lives in them;
- serve one another by using our God-given spiritual gifts
and talents to edify the whole body;
- develop close, loving relationships because of our common
bond in Christ;
- embrace a spirit of grace by focusing on heart issues,
not externals;
- send out many people whom God has gifted and burdened
for vocational Christian service;
- plant other churches as God should grant us grace and
ability.
