vision
Our vision is to build a local church in Biggin Hill according to God's Word (the Bible) and in the power of the Holy Spirit that many might call on Him and be saved.
We seek to follow the example of Acts 2, ‘being devoted to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer'.
We are passionate about loving and worshipping God with a servant heart.
We are committed to loving one another and meeting people's needs.
We are excited about helping people discover Jesus.
We are devoted to encouraging each other to apply the Bible's teaching to everyday life.
We believe in the importance of knowing God personally, loving him, trusting him, displaying his glory and being obedient to his word.
Our vision can be expressed through the following four words, 'Knowing, Showing, Growing & Going'.
Knowing
We want to know God, recognise the need for forgiveness for our sin, and have a daily relationship with Him.
Showing
As disciples of Jesus, we want to receive power from the Holy Spirit to enable us to live lives that are pleasing to Him and help us to tell others about Him.
Growing
We aim to be a church that is growing in faith, in the understanding of the Bible, to be purposeful in prayer, holy living and sharing our lives and living as a community that demonstrates the new life God has given us. As part of 'Regions Beyond', we are committed to playing our part in helping churches grow not only locally but internationally too.
Going
As ambassadors for Jesus, we aim to tell others about Jesus, locally, nationally and internationally. We aim to be involved in local outreach as well as the wider mission to this nation and other nations as part of wider family of Regions Beyond.
