Garden City Church Plant Update

Today, the lead pastor and I, got together at our office, STARBUCKS! You might call it a café but church planters call it their office!! We reviewed information for connecting Christ-followers to God's mission: "To lead people to become fully devoted followers of Christ." That is both God's mission and our mission at Garden City Church. The material we are most likely going to use is called, "Discovering Your S.H.A.P.E" SHAPE is an acronym that stands for Spiritual gifts, Heart (passions), Abilities, Personality and Experience. Our goal as pastors and leaders of Garden City Church is NOT to do all the ministry, but to equip every Christ follower to partner in God's mission as incarnate ministers in the very place God has placed them. Wherever that may be, the office, the café, the class room, or the grocery store, we believe that training people to be fully human as God intended from the beginning of creation is the goal of life. I ask myself, when people look at me do they see Jesus? Have you ever asked yourself that question?
