philosophy
Our Philosophy is to exalt the Lord so that He can draw mankind to Himself, to equip the saints for Kingdom service, evangelize our community, reach out to the lost and empower the weak to live strong and productive lives.
model
Our Model of ministry involves transforming our church into an organization that functions similar to that of a large hospital system based on the following scripture.
Matthew 4:23-24
Jesus focused on three (3) areas of ministry:
1)Teaching
2)Preaching
3)Healing
Matthew Henry’s commentary describes it this way: “Jesus focused on teaching for understanding, preaching for commitment, and healing for wholeness.”
