Stating Our Mission
Posted by pastor on February 3, 2009
If you missed this past Sunday, we had a Members Meeting following the service. One of the announcements was that there will be a new mission statement brought before the church in a few weeks. In preparation for that, the next few Sunday morning sermons will be geared toward grounding this statement in Scripture. I don’t want this statement to be just some idea, but I want it to proceed from biblical notions about who we are and what we are doing as a church.
Here is the proposed mission statement: Crosspoint Baptist Church is a family of believers that exists to make disciples by magnifying, treasuring, and spreading the glory of God in Jesus Christ among all peoples.
The words and phrases, including everything that was included and everything that was not, were very carefully and intentionally chosen. I hope that over the coming weeks we can unite around a common mission and vision for our church, seeking to magnify, treasure, and spread God’s glory in the matchless name of Jesus Christ among all peoples.
