Big Dream, Big Mission

God created us to have an epic, huge, miraculous life with astounding outcomes for ourselves, our loved ones, and God’s Kingdom. Don’t you want that for you?    

We know our Purpose, our Meaning, and our Relationships depend on our acknowledgement of Jesus as our Lord, our willingness to obey God, and our life changing decision to align ourselves with his plan for our lives.   

People of faith have Big Dreams, guided by the Holy Spirit: life's wishes, wants, and desires.  We also have  Big Missions, things we must get done, take care of, and work on until finished.  When considering what God’s plan looks like for our lives, we know the plan must be Christ centered, since anything apart from Jesus, can become an “idol,” leading us away from our best life.    

We believe in Jesus as the Son of God, who came to earth, born of a virgin, fulfilled numerous prophecies and performed many miracles to prove he is the Messiah, was crucified on the cross to act as a substitute for the judgement and condemnation our sins deserve, was buried, and rose to life, then ascended to the Father. 

Our belief reconciles us to God through his mercy and grace.  Our sins are forgiven, and we look forward to an eternal life in a New Heaven and New Earth as described in God’s word.   

Our faith is a call to action, to run the race for Jesus, and to multiply the attributes, skills, strengths, resources, affinities, and circumstances God provides each of us.  If we don’t give the door a shove, how will we know if it is open or locked? If we feel silly shouting at the wall, we may never see the inside of Jericho, and if we are too wise to toss the nets where Jesus suggests, how will we know if we missed the biggest catch of our life? 

Christianity is meant to be active.  We often say,  “go through the doors God opens for you and stop at those he closes.” Fine analogy, but if you don’t give the door a shove, how will you know if it is open or locked? If you feel silly shouting at the wall, you may never see the inside of Jericho, and if you are too wise to toss the nets where Jesus suggests, how will you know if you missed the biggest catch of your life? 

Hockey legend Wayne Gretzky said, “You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.” Let’s not get to the New Heaven and New Earth and find out there were loads of doors we should have flung open, windows waiting for us to crawl through, and races we failed to enter!
