The Great Commission

“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.”

Matthew 28:19,20

OUR PURPOSEwhy are we here?

“Helping Broken People become
Whole-Hearted Followers of Jesus Christ”

OUR VISIONwhere are we going?

“Impacting the Pikes Peak area with a Spirit-led, grace-oriented
church that equips people for ministry throughout the world”

“The challenge for today’s church is how to make whole disciples out of broken people.
Some people’s brokenness is obvious. With others, beautiful exteriors have been carefully crafted to hide what no one really wants to see anyway. Sometimes only their eyes betray them. Or the unsteadiness in the voice, or the almost unnoticeable trembling of the hands.”
