This week we look at our unique identity as a local church. We like to use the metaphor of a picture frame when we talk about it. The sides of that frame include our mission, our core values, our strategy/pathway, and the outcomes we want to see growing in every believer in our church. Those four things are who we are as a local church, and they "frame up" where God is taking us. (To read more about this paradigm, read "Church Unique" by Will Mancini. Pastor Josh borrows much from that book in his message this week.) We're sent to love people and invite them to follow Jesus with us.
This series is about who we uniquely are as a local church (our Kingdom Concept, Mission, Core Values, Strategy, and Outcomes), and where God is taking us in the future.
