Purpose, Passion, Pathway
Who Are We?
Our purpose as a church is everyone, everywhere, experiencing Jesus. We are proud to be a catalyst for people to experience our Savior - not just in this church, but in our community and world as well. We achieve this mission in three ways:
Purpose
Passion
Pathway
Everyone, everywhere, experiencing Jesus.
Purpose
God has placed His Church in the world to display His glory in our life and work together. Through the Church, God has provided a way for each person in every place to encounter Jesus. Through Jesus, we know and worship our Triune God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Fellowship has a particular role to play in this worldwide movement. When we do what God invites us to do, more and more people will come to know Jesus as their Savior and King.
What Fuels our Church to Become More Like Jesus
Passion
The Gospel
We live out the good news of all that God is doing through Jesus Christ.
The Church has a role to play in the story of God and his rescue of the people and created things that He loves. At the heart of that story is the good news of all that God has done by His Spirit through His Son Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus liberates people from the power of sin. Jesus pays the penalty for His people's sinfulness. Jesus adopts those He loves into the family of God. Jesus partners with His Church to love everything and everyone God loves. Jesus is the Christ, the Jewish Messiah who saves His people from sin and rules over creation. This wonderful news at the heart of the world's ultimate story animates our life together as a church.
Intergenerational Community
We experience Jesus in relational spaces where multiple generations are present and valued.
God's design and desire for His Church are to flourish as an intergenerational community. Each generation contributes its gifts and perspective within our church's relational spaces. Within these spaces, each generational contribution is valued as part of a kaleidoscope that displays God's creative power.
Intercultural Community
We experience Jesus in relational spaces where multiple cultures are present and valued.
God’s design and desire for his Church is to flourish as an intercultural community. Each person and family contribute their cultural identity within our church’s relational spaces. Within these spaces, each cultural contribution is valued as part of a kaleidoscope that displays God’s creative power.
Transformational Discipleship
We are becoming like Jesus in all that we are for the glory of God and for the sake of others.
Discipleship is a lifelong relationship with Jesus that makes us like Jesus as we do the work he gives us to do. Over time and through the ups and downs of life, the Spirit of God transforms every part of our life. We experience our identity as beloved sons and daughters of our Heavenly Father. Discipleship in Fellowship Roswell takes place within intercultural and intergenerational spaces. These spaces prioritize and cultivate wisdom and belonging as we follow Jesus together.
