About Adventure Church Meridian

The vision
We see a Church that elevates the value of God’s word, the Bible, by objectively discovering and engaging its context in a transparent, loving environment.
We see a Church that is experiencing God given freedom and the people are living out their faith with commitment, fire, and contagious enthusiasm.
We see a Church where the people of God genuinely develop greater degrees of empowerment, as they are equipped, supported, motivated and mentored.
We see a Church where the leadership is dedicated to helping each member identify their gifts and integrate them into ministries that match their God given strengths.
We see a Church that is as committed to the “Word of God” as it is to being “filled with” and “led by” the Spirit of God. A church that is Christ-centered, not “pastor-centered” but full of people who love Jesus, willing to follow Jesus, and reach others for Jesus.
We see a Church where the people attend Worship because it is encouraging, exciting, and enjoyable and not out of mere “Christian Duty”
We see a Church that develops a system of small groups where individuals can find intimate community, practical help, intensive spiritual interaction, and restoration back to God’s original purpose for their lives.
Imagine a Church where each person, regardless of their life stage, will fall in love with the Lord God and with everyday people.

The mission
What or who is the church? Well, first of all the church was and is God’s idea and is mentioned in at least 18 books of the Bible. Jesus called the church ‘HIS’ church- we may refer to the place where we worship on Sunday as “our church” but we keep in mind that the church ultimately belongs to Jesus Christ himself.
It is our Mission to know the Word of God i.e. the Bible by reading, learning, and encouraging those who may or may not know the God of the Bible to do the same.
It is our Mission to be examples in faith and in conduct in our city
It is our Mission to encourage you to grow wiser and stronger as your relationship with the Lord Jesus deepens.
It is our Mission to value one another and to sharpen one another and serve one another with purpose and biblical direction
It is our Mission as a church to express our love to God together in what is called Worship. There is nothing scary or spooky about it, it is just a time during our services where we sing to the Lord and praise him for his goodness.
It is our Mission to work along with Christ in building His church His way.
Putting it simply the mission of the Adventure Church is to Love, Engage, Strengthen and Send.
Matt 22:37-39
‘'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'
