At Central: “We exist to help people find and follow Jesus!”

Here are the 4 things we’re trying to accomplish…

  • Saved people .

  • Trained people .

Exodus 6:6-7 NIV // Therefore, say to the Israelites: “I am the LORD, and I will bring youout from under the yoke of the Egyptians. I will free you from being slaves to them, and  Iwill redeem with an outstretched arm and with mighty acts of judgment. I will take you asmy own people, and I will be your God. Then you will know that I am the LORD your God, who brought you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians.”

Mark 16:15-20 NIV // He said to them, ‘Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe willbe condemned. And these signs will accompany those who believe…’ Then the disciples went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them and confirmed his word by the signs that accompanied it.

Colossians 1:28-29 NIV // He is the one we proclaim, admonishing, and teachingeveryone with all wisdom,  so that we may present everyone fully mature in Christ. 29To this end I labor, struggling with all his energy, which so powerfully works in me.
