The Simple Christian Life
God has called us to KNOW HIM INTIMATELY! As our friend Vance Pitman (Senior Pastor at Hope Church, Las Vegas) says "God didn't call you to ministry ... He called you to intimacy and ministry is the overflow of intimacy". At Life Church, we lead through our LOVE, CARE, SHARE, BE strategy!
LOVE ... CARE ... ShARE ... BE
LOVE God
We cannot know God intimately without spending time with Him and we cannot LOVE God unless we know Him. We know God more when we read His word and talk to Him. In any relationship, studying the other person and communicating with them is a must to know them better. We cannot LOVE God without reading His Word (the Bible) and talking with Him (prayer). It is essential for our LIFE to grow into deeper intimacy with HIM. When we LOVE God more, we are able to CARE for His family and SHARE His life with our world.
CARE for His family
We cannot grow up or grow more in love with God without being with His family. God's family is one of the avenues God reveals Himself and that His children are able to experience His love. We see our LIFE gatherings as our time to gather together and CARE for each-other. Here, we serve each other and learn to love God together through prayer, the arts, giving and the preaching of His Word. We also see our LIFE group times as vital for Christian flourishing where we find friendships and deeper levels of CARE through our weekly LIFE Groups. Our LIFE Services and our LIFE Groups are where we CARE for each other ... its also where Jesus told us that the world would know we are His, by our love for one another!
SHARE with our world then BE who God created us to BE
The Christian LIFE is not a life of busyness but of Jesus living His LIFE through us to our world. We believe God wants to share His LIFE to your world through you. LIFE Groups and city engagements are how we will SHARE His LIFE with others in the Gospel. However, we believe God is inviting Life Church Monroe to reach out to our world, not just our city. We want to see every LIFE family member take their love for God to other cities around the world. This is where we believe every LIFE family member lives out who God created them to BE! We want each person to KNOW how God has wired them and enjoy the journey God has them on so they can BE who God has meant for them to BE!
