Vision 2025 / 2026

Our Never-Changing Mission:
Make Disciples

The single best thing we can do for our community is to be a healthy, disciple-making church. 

And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:18-20)

Someday soon Jesus will return and make all things new. UNTIL then, we will maximize the resources God has entrusted to us for the sake of his disciple-making mission.

UNTIL is a vision and resource initiative to expand our campus and make disciples.

Theme of the Year: “Pursue the Good Life”

Everyone wants “the good life.” We don’t find it in wealth, comfort, health, or cheery circumstances, but in Jesus and in obedience to him. 

Every sermon series has been intentionally thought and prayed through to help us, as a church, follow Jesus in pursuit of the truly good life.

  • 7 Deadly Sins (7 weeks) — the good life is found in repenting from what kills and destroys, and pursuing godly virtue.

  • Parables in Luke (9 weeks) — Jesus described the good life in his teaching about the kingdom of God, often in the form of parables. 

  • UNTIL (5 weeks) — as those committed to the good life, we invest ourselves in stewarding our time, talent, and treasure for Jesus’ eternal kingdom

  • Habakkuk (3 weeks) — when all seems lost because of suffering, the good life is still available by faith.

  • The Glory of Salvation (10 weeks) — the good life is ultimately a life of salvation. This theological series will explore election, regeneration, conversion, justification, adoption, union, sacraments, sanctification, perseverance, and glorification.

  • The Beatitudes (8 weeks) — Jesus describes his counter-cultural vision for the good life in the opening of the Sermon on the Mount, inviting us to follow him into the good life.

Join us in-person, watch online, or listen to the weekly sermons.
