Vision Overview

I envision a church community that is centered on Jesus, rooted in Scripture, and equipped to make disciples who make disciples. This vision is built on three priorities: deepening spiritual maturity, strengthening authentic relationships, and engaging our community with the gospel. It requires both a biblical foundation and a clear, executable strategy so that disciple-making becomes the culture, not just a program.

Strategic Framework

This vision is anchored in the Relational–Intentional–Reproducible (RIR) discipleship framework and the Four Disciplines of Execution (4DX) for strategic follow-through. Together, they ensure that we are both faithful to our mission and effective in achieving it.

• Relational: Discipleship flourishes in authentic relationships. Small groups, mentoring, and shared life form the primary environments for spiritual growth.
• Intentional: Leaders are equipped to guide people through clear steps of spiritual maturity, from new faith to reproducing disciple-makers.
• Reproducible: Our processes are simple and transferable so that every believer can participate in the mission.

Key Priorities

• Spiritual Depth: Equip believers with biblical literacy and practical tools to live out their faith daily.
• Community Engagement: Mobilize members to serve and witness in neighborhoods, workplaces, and local networks.
• Leadership Multiplication: Develop leaders at every level who can train and send others into ministry.
• Unified Direction: Keep the mission clear and front-facing in all ministries and communication.

Why This Vision Matters Now

The cultural moment demands churches that are both spiritually vibrant and outwardly focused. Many people are spiritually curious but institutionally skeptical; they need to see and experience the gospel lived out in everyday life. This is a moment to equip believers to be both the gathered and scattered church—worshiping together and living sent in their communities.

Over the last two decades, I have seen firsthand how a church can thrive when it embraces a disciple-making culture. By building strong relational environments, equipping intentional leaders, and establishing reproducible processes, we can ensure that the mission of making disciples is not just something we talk about but something we live out every day.
