TO KNOW CHRIST- John 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. Knowing Christ is the foundation of our faith. Jesus Christ is The Solid Rock of our salvation. Every believer has the assurance that salvation is a free gift from God and is received by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone, apart from works lest any man should boast. Knowing Christ and passionately seeking Him is what eternal life is.
TO GROW IN CHRIST- 2 Peter 3:18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen. Growing in Christ is not done in isolation; it is done within a community of believers who love Christ and one another. Our passion is to grow in Christ together as a body. We believe that the Spirit of God places every believer into a local body to be an active, participating member in the body of Christ. We grow by serving one another and by using our God-given gifts and talents to build one another up.
TO PROCLAIM CHRIST- Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. Our desire and passion is to reach as many people with the gospel of Jesus Christ across the street, across the county, across the nation, across the world, and across the Internet and television. Every believer has been called by God to be a visible and vocal witness of the gospel of Jesus Christ in the power of The Holy Ghost.
TO BRING GLORY TO GOD- 1 Corinthians 10:31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. We exist as a church to bring glory to God in all that we do. Every believer should be motivated to do all that we do for the glory of God. The only acceptable motives for serving God are His love and for His glory. It is our prayer that this 4 fold vision impact not only our local church, but our personal lives, our marriages, our vocations and callings.
I have been blessed that Koinonia has been my church home for about 10 years now. The 4-fold ministry philosophy captures the essence of my experience these past 10 years. Time flies when you are in the word of God…
