But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.

~ 1 Peter 3:15

Our strategy is to help each person start a relationship with God (see"Good News). We want to then help each person strengthen that relationship.

This relationship with God can be strengthened in the following ways:

• GATHER ~ Journey together rather than going solo

Hebrews 10:24-25 ~ And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another--and all the more as you see the Day approaching.


• GROW ~ God reorganizing our walk

2 Peter 3:18 ~ But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen.


• GIVE ~ I am the most like Jesus when I serve

Mark 10:45 ~ For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.


• GO ~ Prepared and empowered to pass it on

Matthew 28:19-20 ~ 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.
