Our Mission: Connecting, Caring, and Changing
Connecting to Christ– Life Community seeks to connect with Jesus Christ and His Word.
Caring for People– Life Community seeks to care for people through Christian Community and helping the hurting.
Changing the World– Life Community seeks to make a difference in our community, state, nation, and the world through missions.
Our Core Values: The Big 5
Life Community values the “Big 5,” Worship, Ministry, Evangelism, Fellowship, and Discipleship. The “Big 5” come straight from two sections of scripture; The Great Commandment and the Great Commission.
The Great Commandment:
“Jesus said, ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart…soul…and mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself. All the Law and Prophets hang on these two commandments.’” Matt. 22:36-40
The Great Commission:
“Jesus said, ‘Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.” Matt. 28:19-20
- To “Love God with all your heart” is “WORSHIP”.
- To “Love your neighbor as yourself” is “MINISTRY”.
- To “Go…make disciples” is “EVANGELISM”.
- To “Baptize…” is to “FELLOWSHIP”.
- To “Teach them…all things” is “DISCIPLESHIP”
Therefore, we will fulfill our mission of Connecting, Caring, and Changing by valuing the “Big 5”
Connecting to God through Jesus (Worship) and connecting to His Word (Discipleship).
Caring for people through Life Groups (fellowship) and helping hurts (ministry).
Changing the world through missions (evangelism).
