We
believe strongly in the importance of every disciple of Jesus being
active in using their gifts and abilities to glorify God. Here at

Evangelism
A
grace-filled church understands that the Gospel is good news.
It must be proclaimed clearly and understandably in todays
language.
Communicating the Good News of Christ involves everyone who is a
Christian and is shared best with those for whom we have genuine love
and friendship.
It does not look at others with our human eyes, but with Gods
eyes.
As ambassadors of the Kingdom of God, we are compelled to share
with others the same grace which we have received from God.
How
Do We Implement It?
Evangelism

Looking
To the Future
Evangelism
is
the ministry of what we believe. We hope that our joy in the grace of God is always evident as we
worship together, as we gather for fellowship during the week and as we
live our lives in the world. We
know that we have discovered the most fulfilling life possibleeternal
life that is lived in covenant with Jesus Christ. We want many others to share in the life, so that they might live
the joy we have. The book
of Acts depicts the amazing spread of the good news of Jesus throughout
the Roman World. We hope to
continue this story as we join with other believers in lifting up Jesus
Christ in the Inland Northwest & extending His grace to those who
need it!
