Our Mission

The mission of Northland Bible Church is five-fold, and is outlined in the Great Commandment (Matthew 22:37-39) and in the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19,20).

The mission of this church is to:

1. Love God with all our hearts,

2. Bring people into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ,

3. Incorporate them into the membership of the church,

4. Teach them to live in obedience to God’s Word, and

5. Equip them to use their spiritual gifts in service to others.

We will endeavor to fulfill our mission by implementing the following biblical priorities:

1. WORSHIP - honoring and celebrating Christ in our lives through godly living as individuals and through regular worship and study of God’s Word together as a church family. (Psalm. 95:6-7; Matthew 22:37-38; John 4:24; Acts 2:46-47; Ephesians 5:19-20; Hebrews 10:25)

2. OUTREACH - sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ with as many people as possible in our community and throughout the world, with a heart of compassion to meet their needs. (Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 1:8; 2:47; Second Peter 3:9)

3. RELATIONSHIPS - fellowshipping, encouraging, supporting, praying, caring for, and in other ways, edifying one another in personal family life and in the family of God. (Matthew 22:39; John 13:34-35; Acts 2:42,46; Romans 15:5-7; Hebrews 10:24-25; First John 1:7)

4. GROWTH - developing in maturity, love, discipline and integrity as individual believers, through a lifestyle of Bible study, prayer, giving and spiritual accountability, that leads to greater outreach, richer worship, deeper relationships, increased service and discipling of others. (Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 2:42; Ephesians 4:11-13; Second Timothy 2:2; Second Peter 3:18).

5. SERVICE - ministering unselfishly to others both in the church family and outside of it, through discovering and using the gifts and abilities God has given us to meet their spiritual, physical and emotional needs. (Matthew 25:34-40; Galatians 5:13; I Thessalonians 5:11; First Peter 4:10-11)

All ministries of the church will be initiated, supported, and evaluated in light of these priorities.
