C.Our Vision
We’re here to help people Know God, Find Freedom, Discover their Destiny, and Make a Difference
1. Know God (Sunday services)

b. (John 17:3 NIV; Matt. 7:21-23 NIV)
2. Find Freedom (Small groups)
a. One of the ways God designed for us to live in freedom is to have people in our life to help us in the journey. Connecting with others in Destiny small groups is a practical and enjoyable way to find that kind of life-changing community.
b. (John 8:31-33 NIV; 34-36 ESV)
3. Discover Your Destiny (Level Up Growth Track)
a. We’re all an important part of God’s plan, and our life will never make sense until we discover our purpose and destiny. The Destiny Level Up Growth Track is designed to help us take steps in the important process of discovering our purpose.
b. (Eph. 2:10 AMPC)
4. Make a Difference (D-Team)
a. This is God’s ultimate plan for our life – to make an eternal difference in the lives of others. When we do what the Bible tells us we will experience joy. Through the Destiny D-Teams, we hope to connect every person to an opportunity to live out their calling by using their gifts and talents to serve others in the church and community.
b. (1 Pet. 4:10 NIV; Rom. 12:1-2 MSG)
