3 Gospel Commitments Gospel Truth - We are committed to the truth of scripture, and believe its central message is the Gospel; the message of God’s gracious work to redeem sinners. Gospel Community - We are committed to knowing, loving and serving one another as brothers and sisters united in Christ. Gospel Mission - Individually and corporately, we are committed to declaring and demonstrating the Gospel to our communities, our cities and the nations.

Matthew 28:19-20 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” Bring in – Build Up – Branch Out

Our Mission is not the Gospel Matthew 28:19-20 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” Our Mission is not the Gospel

Matthew 28:19-20 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” Gospel Identity Precedes Gospel Mission

Psalms 119:30-32 30 I have chosen the way of faithfulness; I set your rules before me. 31 I cling to your testimonies, O Lord; let me not be put to shame! 32 I will run in the way of your commandments when you enlarge my heart!

Are you making bricks without straw? What Disciples Do… Matthew 28:20 Observe all I command… Matthew 5:48 Be perfect... Acts 2:42 Be devoted to... John 15:7-8 Bear fruit... Are you making bricks without straw?

Identity Precedes Mission Who you were before Jesus. Eph. 2:1-3 Who you are now in Jesus. Eph. 2:4-9 What I do in Jesus. Eph. 2:10 Who are you?

Galatians 5:1 1 For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.

My Gospel Story 1988 Happy Birthday – Justification 1995 Going deeper – Making Disciples 1998 Understanding my Identity 1 John 1:5-10 Confession Romans 7:18-24 Frustration Romans 7:24-8:4 Freedom Romans 8:12-17 My Identity in Jesus

What is Your Gospel Story? Trust (believe) Jesus for salvation… Trust (believe) Jesus for your identity... Who you are is not defined by what you do. What you do flows from who you are.

Psalms 119:30-32 30 I have chosen the way of faithfulness; I set your rules before me. 31 I cling to your testimonies, O Lord; let me not be put to shame! 32 I will run in the way of your commandments when you enlarge my heart!
