MISSION STATEMENT:

   Our Mission as an independent and autonomous Church of Christ is to glorify God in all things through Jesus Christ our Lord, who saved us by His grace, “according to the good pleasure of his will.” We will strive to accomplish this through regular participation in thoughtful spirit-led worship, through active and relevant service to our community, and through a strong focus on the development and nurturing of loving relationships.

 

PURPOSE STATEMENT:    

             Reaching Up Through Worship  :  Reaching Out Through Service

Reaching In Through Relationships

 

BACKGROUND:

        A brief description of our background may help you understand us.

      We are a part of “The Restoration Movement.” Our goal is to “restore”  the   New Testament church in our time–to determine from the Bible what the church was like in the beginning, and to be like that. We believe this is a worthy and reverent goal.

      We want to be a bible-centered church. And we try to be. Yet we know that our conclusions aren’t flawless, and that our practices  are sometimes colored by habit, preference, tradition or convenience.

      We don’t know everything. We don’t do everything right. We don’t always treat each other as we should. We haven’t arrived–we’re just on the journey.

      But, you see, we were not brought together by any illusion of our perfection or righteousness. We were brought together by our recognition that we are human beings who struggle with sin and are in desperate need of the saving power of Jesus Christ.

      That’s the reason we can worship together, stick together, and with God’s help, accomplish some things that make a real difference.

      You won’t have to look very far to find our failures.

      But, bottom line, you will find people here at the Milam Street Church of Christ who love Jesus, love people and love the Scriptures.
