About Grace Polaris Church
-
Our Mission
Grace Polaris Church exists to honor God by multiplying devoted followers of Jesus through worship, community, training, and witness.
Worship reflects our passion for God—Father, Son, and Spirit. He’s the Maker, Sustainer, Savior, and Lord. In our worship, we recognize Him for who He really is, revel in his power and glory, and reveal our need for His grace in our lives. Worship is the heartbeat of every devoted follower of Jesus in all aspects of their lives. Weekly gatherings invite us to come together as His people and express our worship of Him. Jesus—O come, let us adore Him!
Community displays our participation in Jesus’ family. We were designed for connection to others as we follow the Lord together. Together as a church, we learn to live out the Bible’s “one anothers” which mark true followers of Jesus. This collective pursuit and relational joy is a gift from God. We belong and are valued. Community begins when we declare our trust in Jesus alone, and then join with others to express that. Our Grace Groups represent the biggest and broadest path to this life together. Following Jesus together.
Training describes our preparation for service. Through our study of the Bible and our involvement in practical ministry, we learn to practice what we believe to be true. The Bible calls this bearing fruit. Knowledge is essential, but it’s not enough. God’s desire is that we grow in maturity and are mobilized to use His gifts to us for the good of others. We feast on His Word and we exercise through service. Grace Polaris U is the foremost of multiple initiatives at Grace for training. Learning devotion to Jesus.
Witness highlights our presentation of Jesus to the world. We are recipients of God’s grace, and we can’t keep it to ourselves. The Gospel is meant for the whole world and our own “worlds” of home, neighborhood, school, and workplace. Through outreach (demonstration) and evangelism (proclamation), we make known the God who can save and transform lives. Our own life is Exhibit A, and when combined with others, the Gospel radiates its power. Multiplying devoted followers of Jesus.
