Why We're Here
It's our life's joy and our mission together to know Christ and to make him known. Every time we gather, we plunge deep into the good news of Jesus, and as we go we strive to make his good news known through words of truth and deeds of love. We are the body of Christ. Slowly but surely, week by week and year by year, we are being conformed to him.
Why are we so taken with Jesus?
Two thousand years ago, on the east shore of the Mediterranean Sea, Jesus claimed to be the image of the invisible God, his eternal Son sent to redeem us and restore us to God. But this claim wasn't made out of thin air. For centuries prior, the promises of God preserved in the Old Testament Scriptures pointed to him. Jesus is the fulfillment of God's promise of salvation, the good news from God.
Glad tidings of great joy!
This is the good news, and the heart of the Christian faith, called the gospel: Jesus will save anyone who turns to him in true faith, and one coming day he will make everything new. For a short survey of the gospel, check out Two Ways to Live. For a deeper look, check out 3 2 1.
