Learners

We are students of Jesus, learning to take responsibility for our own development so that we can develop others.

Followers of Jesus are called to discipline themselves for the purpose of godliness (1 Tim 4:7-8). This includes both our personal and communal time with God, as well as involvement together in training provided by spiritual leadership (Luke 2:52; Matt 28:18-20; Eph 4:11-13; 2 Tim 2:2). Our learning must also model Jesus, along the way, following Him on mission. We are to be equipped while on mission SO THAT we can equip others (make disciples who make disciples). Jesus calls us to follow His ways, to be his disciples, and to live in obedience to all that God commands, just like His call on His first disciples. His call included sending them out to make new disciples. We believe we are also called to be followers of Jesus who take responsibility for our own development and the development of others—equipped to equip, blessed to be a blessing—all while on mission together.

Learners Callout

Every human being is designed to be a learner. From the time we are born physically, we start learning how to live life and get out of life what we want. We turn to an endless number of “teachers” in order to learn, whether media, art, religion, relationships, education, politics, etc.  It is all an attempt to find truth. In the gospel, we are transformed into learners/disciples of Jesus—the Truth. We have been given His Spirit to guide us into ALL truth. Likewise, the gospel not only introduces us to truth, but calls for AND provides the power necessary to OBEY the truth that Jesus taught (“…teaching them to OBSERVE all that I commanded…” Matthew 28:20). As His disciples, we must recognize that while God has given the church teachers to help one become like Jesus, He has also given each of us His Spirit to teach and transform us into the image of Christ AND share it with others (Matt 28:18-20; John 16:13-15; Rom 8:28-30).

What to Expect at Fellowship

Each Sunday we gather as the church to celebrate our hero—Jesus.

  1. We CELEBRATE Jesus through singing.
  2. We HEAR from Jesus through His Word.
  3. We RESPOND to Jesus through singing, communion, baptism, or sharing.
  4. We GO FOLLOW Jesus in our everyday lives as we leave the gathering.

A Typical Sunday Environment

  • Gospel-centered preaching motivated by Jesus’ good news (usually through a book of the Bible)
  • A welcoming environment to explore the claims of Christ without feeling like an outsider
  • Casual dress
  • Deep, Christ-exalting, contemporary worship through music
  • Ordinary people learning to BE the church for one another and our city (young families, college adults, empty-nesters, singles, in all walks of life)
  • One single hero, Jesus Christ
