Goals
Our three priorities as members of the church of Christ:
-
LOVING GOD
-
STANDING FIRM
-
REACHING OUT
LOVING
GOD
Jesus said: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment."
(Matthew 22:37-38)
Our
first priority as a church of Christ is to give our hearts to God - to
love Him with all of our being! We believe Jesus Christ is the only Son
of God and the Savior of the world. Our earnest desire is for a
spiritual relationship with Christ and to imitate His lifestyle daily at
work, school, in the community, through our homes and among one another.
If you are searching for God in your
life...
If you are seeking salvation from your
sins...
If you are sincere about a life-changing
experience with the Lord...
If you are needing God in your home...
If you are looking for happiness and
hope...
If you want to go to Heaven...
... then the Lake Harbour Drive church of Christ
is the place to be. We hope you will make us your home church and
we will love God together in our journey toward eternity.
STANDING
FIRM
"Stand
firm in one spirit, contending as one man for the faith of the
Gospel." (Philippians
1:27)
A second
priority of the Lake Harbour Drive church of Christ is to "stand firm in
the faith". We believe the Bible to be the Word of God, and
with a restoration spirit, it is our desire to return to the New
Testament without being a denomination and to follow our Lord's pattern
for His church in worship, unity, organization, name, terms of
membership, mission and ministry.
Our plea is for
the unity of all believers according to our Lord's prayer and plan based
on God's Word. Since the New Testament sets forth Christ's
instructions to His disciples, it alone must guide us in faith and
practice.
If you are interested in undenominational
Christianity...
If you believe only the Bible to be our guide...
If your will is to obey only the Truth of Scripture...
If you want to become only a member of the church like
you read about in the New Testament...
... then we invite you to come and stand firm with us.
REACHING
OUT
"For the
Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost." (Luke
19:10)
The third
priority of the Lake Harbour Drive church of Christ is to grow a great
congregation by being fully committed to fulfilling the great commission
(Matt
28:19; Mark
16:15). Our mission is to reach out to the total community in
the tri-county area of north Jackson, Madison, and Ridgeland.
Growing stronger through worship...
Growing larger through outreach...
Growing broader through service...
Growing deeper through discipleship...
Growing warmer through fellowship...
We are deeply
concerned about the spiritual needs of all families and providing a
healthy place for both young and old to grow in Christ together and to
reach out to others through friendship evangelism. If you are
looking for a church with this vision and mission, then look no
longer! You will be blessed here with us and you will be a
blessing to others.
