Today is the third week of our series, Better Together. We are looking at our church’s core values, and today we will be exploring “Our Mission.” The three values of “Grounding”, “Discipleship”, and “Mission” are inextricably tied together, one growing out of the next, much like the soil and tree analogy we have been using. Our Grounding in Christ leads to the need for Discipleship which produces the fruit of the Mission. The mission we participate in is the same mission God has been on throughout history — the redemption and reconciliation of the world. God has called us and sends us to participate in that mission with Him.
