Our Vision

Jesus, the Head of this church, brings together a unique mix of people with a distinctive array of spiritual gifts, life experiences, and abilities. Through that unique blend He calls us to carry out His work in a way unlike 10,000 other churches.

Here at FBC we exist to: Shepherd messy and broken people toward holiness and wholeness through our Savior and Healer.
​
Practically speaking, our vision is to create a culture where we can be real with one another, for all people are messy (there’s sin in our life) and broken (something hurts in our spirits and relationships), so we can move toward the holiness and wholeness that is ours in Jesus! The freedom to be real creates space to walk with one another as we together connect deeply
with Jesus, our Savior and Healer.

Our Goals


​Before ascending to the right hand of the Father, our Lord Jesus set out a clear and compelling goal for His Church: to make disciples of all nations (Matthew 28:19). Our goal is straightforward – to make disciples whose entire lives are marked by:​
Craving God – a hunger and thirst to know and experience more and more of our great God, so we can grow up in our salvation.
Crazy Faith – the kind of faith in Christ that leads those around us to mutter, “you’re crazy to trust Him like that!”
Costly Love – a willingness to lay down our pride, time, rights, and resources in order to sacrificially love others like Jesus.
Courageous Obedience – the choice to obey our Father God’s will for holy living as revealed in Scripture, even when no one else is.
Committed Service – going “all in” as we serve Jesus wherever He puts us, whenever He calls us, doing whatever He asks.
Contagious Joy– living in such a way that others “catch” the joy of knowing and serving Jesus, no matter our circumstances.
