Vision Weekend

Vision - Help People Know God

Mission - Practicing The Way of Jesus

Pursuit 1 - The Presence of God

At New Song Church, we pursue the presence of God by seeking Him first and above all else.

Revelation 3.20
God says: Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. 

Matthew 18:20 For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.

Pursuit 2 - Transformational Discipleship

We pursue transformational discipleship by focusing on spiritual formation and every Christian’s destiny to progressively grow in Christlikeness.

2 Corinthians 3:18
And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.

Romans 8:29
For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.

We pursue transformational discipleship by focusing on spiritual formation and EVERY Christian’s destiny to progressively grow in Christlikeness.

Pursuit 3 - Kingdom Community

We pursue relational community by living into the reality of the family of God and desiring unity across generational, racial, political, and economic divides.

Acts 2:42-47
All the believers devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching, and to fellowship, and to sharing in meals (including the Lord’s Supper), and to prayer. A deep sense of awe came over them all, and the apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders. And all the believers met together in one place and shared everything they had. They sold their property and possessions and shared the money with those in need. They worshiped together at the Temple each day, met in homes for the Lord’s Supper, and shared their meals with great joy and generosity— all the while praising God and enjoying the goodwill of all the people. And each day the Lord added to their fellowship those who were being saved. 

Psalm 92:13
Those who are planted in the house of the Lord Shall flourish in the courts of our God.

Pursuit 4 - Sacrificial Mission

We pursue sacrificial mission by giving, serving, and loving sacrificially in our homes, our church, our community, and the world.

Gerald Sittser
“We all know that the greatest sacrifice has already been made- Christ’s sacrifice on the cross, which has set us free from having to make sacrifices to earn our salvation but which also summons us to want to make sacrifices as an expression of gratitude to God and love to others. The degree of sacrifice as well as the kind of sacrifice will vary, depending on context and calling. Some will work in the slums of Africa, others will raise a large family; some will take on a job that pays a low salary, others will make lots of money and give most of it away. There is no absolute rule to follow here, no perfect standard against which to measure both quality and quantity of sacrifice. Comparisons are simply out of the question. Only one truth applies to all: the ultimate sacrifice we make should be the whole of ourselves to God. And then we should simply let life take its course.”

Romans 12:1
Therefore, brothers and sisters, in view of the mercies of God, I urge you to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God; this is your true worship

Romans 15:5-6
May God, who gives us patience and encouragement, help us live in complete harmony with each other, as is fitting for followers of Christ Jesus. Then we can join together with one voice, giving praise and glory to God.
