1 community; 1 vision; 1 sentence

A few months ago, I wrote several blog posts outlining the vision for planting a church in the Stanwood-Camano community. Yet as a group of us have begun talking through this vision, and I’ve attempted to share this vision with others, it’s become clear that we need a way to effectively communicate it in a short and easy-to-understand way. A way to succinctly say, “This is who we are and what we’re aiming for as a church; if you find this compelling, come and take part in carrying forth the vision.”

So here it is: four blogs worth of material boiled down into one sentence. I’ve bolded words and phrases that are most important and that probably each need a whole paragraph of explanation. But the purpose of this blog is to keep it short and easily-digestible, and the longer explanations can be found in the previous posts on church planting (see the links on the right).

Our vision is to grow a community of Christ followers in the Stanwood-Camano area in which the good news of Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection and its implications are clearly taught and consistently applied to every area of life.

So there you have it! Pass it around.
