First Foundation

Believe. Belong. Become.

In this series, we will explore three core values that are foundational building blocks of community formation. We will walk through a “discipleship pathway,” which starts with BELIEVING in Jesus’ name. Those who believe in His name become the children of God(John 1:12). Children BELONG to the family, as a brick belongs to the building (Ephesians 2:20-22), an organ belongs to the body, and a branch belongs to the vine (John 15:5-8). Those who belong in the family of God are called to a journey to being transformed into the image of Christ (Romans 8:29). This process of BECOMING His image in the world is an ongoing journey where we identify with Jesus both in His suffering and glory.
