INTRODUCTION to Local Outreach Ministries
When the Apostle Peter was seeking
to describe what it means to be a Christian, he gave us insight into God’s
motive for saving a people for His own possession. In 1 Peter 2:9, Peter tells
us that God has redeemed Christians “so that you may proclaim the excellencies
of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.” We serve a
magnificently gracious God who has forgiven our sins and has satisfied our
souls. And because we love Him, we desire to “proclaim His excellencies” to all
who will listen.
Local Outreach seeks to instruct and
equip church members in the obedient and joyful pursuit of that Great
Commission (cf. Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 1:8) by taking the Gospel to our
community. Our philosophy of ministry regarding evangelism is as follows.
Biblical evangelism is:
·
God-centered rather than
man-centered,
·
Theology-driven rather than
method-driven,
·
Discipleship-oriented rather than
decision-oriented, and
·
Time-redeeming.
When
we serve, we join in on God’s mission in this world. God is at work all around
us, rescuing lost people and healing brokenness in our world. God is asking
each of us to give our lives for His Kingdom, here and now, and to bring love,
compassion, and hope in the name of Jesus.
The
Local Outreach Ministry seeks to equip our congregation to reach out to our
surrounding communities in different means and at various levels. We work to
reach the lost ones of the world both by partnering with many organizations and
through our own ministries.
The Local Outreach
Ministry believes that Jesus made us salt and light of the world to spread the
Good News wherever we go. He called us to be fishers of men
and women - to bring others to know Him as personal savior.
