Our Purpose
We believe God has set us here as "The Lighthouse On The Hill," being called to:
Evangelism: We are to be "the light of the world" (Matthew 5:14), shining out the truth into a dark, sinful world We preach Christ: the sinless Son who died in our place, was buried, and rose again, to offer every one who trusts in him abundant and eternal life.
Exaltation: Our ultimate purpose is to glorify God through our actions and our Worship. That means our light points to Him, not us. Our goal is to make times together in singing, studying, and sharing when we offer the sacrifice of praise to God (Hebrews 13:15).
Edification: We want our lighthouse, our church, and the people in it, to be built in the firm foundation of the Rock, Jesus Christ (Eph 2:19-22). This means we must build each other up, each using our own gifts so that we can together fulfill God's purpose for our church.
Encouragement: Being a place of shelter for the spiritually poor and needy, we want to be a haven of safety for every person willing to come in from the storms of life. We want to both hurt with those who are hurting and rejoice with those who are rejoicing (I Corinthians 12).
