There are nine Christian disciplines that have a defined order of importance.

Bible Study — all other disciplines are based on the Word of God, so the Word has to be first. God instructs us through his world.
Solitude — (also meditation) We get alone with God so He can speak to us. We can hear what He wants through shutting every other influence
Prayer — because we have studied the word and have been alone with him, now I know what to say to Him.
Worship — thank Him for speaking to being so great, gracious, loving, and who He is
Fasting — humbling myself before the Lord by denying my body of things that please it.
Fellowship — because of previous five disciples, we are now ready to interact with other believers.
Giving — Being connected with a fellowship of believers, we give to that fellowship.
Serving — We help, assist, and minister to one another so we are prepared for the next step…
Witnessing — Sharing the good news about Jesus Christ with those who do not know him

Our vision statement explains why we exist as a church.

The vision/purpose of our church is summarized in a single sentence based on two key scriptures:

We believe a great commitment to “The Great Commission” and “The Great Commandment” will grow a great church.

The Great Commandment: Matt 22:37-39 – Jesus replied, “‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all you soul, and all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’” (New Living Translation)

The Great Commission: Matthew 28:19-20 – “Jesus said, Therefore go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And he sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” (New Living Translation)

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 incorporate into the Fellowship
To “Teach them..all things” is Discipleship
