Empowering God’s people to restore the world.
God forms a people who are being set free—humble yet courageous, honest about brokenness yet made whole in Christ. Filled with the Holy Spirit and shaped by God’s heart, they live marked by grace, resilience, and holy confidence (2 Corinthians 4). Commissioned and sent as ambassadors of reconciliation (2 Corinthians 5:20), they participate in God’s restorative work, bringing healing, renewal, and hope to every sphere of life (Isaiah 58; 61).
These Scriptures are prayerfully shaping our discernment for 2026. The following biblical concepts are foundational as we build into the future: “empty vessels and not too few,” “signs and wonders,” “stand firm and see salvation,” “called to go,” and “search with whole heart.”
Now the wife of one of the sons of the prophets cried to Elisha, “Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that your servant feared the LORD, but the creditor has come to take my two children to be his slaves.” And Elisha said to her, “What shall I do for you? Tell me; what have you in the house?” And she said, “Your servant has nothing in the house except a jar of oil.” Then he said, “Go outside, borrow vessels from all your neighbors, empty vessels and not too few. Then go in and shut the door behind yourself and your sons and pour into all these vessels. And when one is full, set it aside.” So she went from him and shut the door behind herself and her sons. And as she poured they brought the vessels to her. When the vessels were full, she said to her son, “Bring me another vessel.” And he said to her, “There is not another.” Then the oil stopped flowing. She came and told the man of God, and he said, “Go, sell the oil and pay your debts, and you and your sons can live on the rest.”
And awe came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles. And all who believed were together and had all things in common.
Moses said to the people, “Fear not, stand firm, and see the salvation of the Lord, which He will work for you today.”
By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place that he was to receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.
You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.
Transforming lives from the neighborhoods to the nations by the power of God’s love.
Lives are transformed when people encounter the living God, receive forgiveness, discover their God-given purpose, and daily choose to leave behind their old ways to follow Jesus. This is the heart of discipleship—not a moment, but a lifelong process of being with Christ, learning His way of life, and being continually shaped into His likeness by the power of the Spirit.
Our ministry pathway is designed to move people from the funnel to the field. The funnel represents our wide-reaching efforts to welcome and engage people, just as Jesus came to seek and save the lost (Luke 19:9-10). We create intentional spaces where anyone can encounter God’s love and take their first steps in faith. But the journey doesn’t stop there. Jesus also said, “The fields are white unto harvest, but the laborers are few.” (John 4:35) As a church, we equip and empower people to step into the fields—both locally and globally—living out their faith through mission and ministry, bringing hope and restoration to a world in need.
To ensure long-term kingdom effectiveness, we are strengthening the philosophical and structural alignment of all our ministries. Our ministries are organized around an integrated pathway reflecting the life and mission of Jesus: Relate, Engage, Disciple, Send. With new point leaders for each quadrant, we are aligning language, leadership, and systems so every ministry collaborates as part of one movement—from encounter to formation to mission. Our heart is to welcome the lost and faithfully form and send the ready.
Restorative compassion and action through the Family Restoration Center
Encounter through worship, preaching, and next generation ministries
Formation through Rooted, community life, and family ministries
Commission through leadership development, campus expansion, and local and global mission
Decision drivers help us discern not just what we do, but why we do it. They serve as anchors that align vision, prayer, resources, and leadership around what we believe God is speaking to us in this moment. Rather than reacting to pressure or preference, these drivers provide a framework for listening, prioritizing, and faithfully stewarding the work of God in this season.
We commit to forming disciples who are continually being shaped into the likeness of Christ. We cultivate rhythms and practices that anchor people in Scripture, prayer, community, and mission, believing that true life transformation is intentional, relational, and Spirit-empowered. We see a church that lives with discernment and resilience, reaches emerging generations with the gospel, and brings lasting kingdom impact to neighborhoods and beyond.
We believe God is uniquely at work among children, students, and young adults in this moment. Recognizing the narrowing window for long-term faith formation, we intentionally invest in and empower younger generations. We make room for their voices, support their leadership, and walk alongside them as they pursue their calling in Christ. We picture a vibrant, multigenerational church filled with young people who are fully integrated, awakened by the Spirit, rooted in truth, and boldly living on kingdom mission.
We address not only immediate needs, but also the deeper systemic issues that perpetuate brokenness in our world. Guided by the compassion and wisdom of Jesus, we recognize that while addressing symptoms brings temporary relief, lasting and generational transformation requires engaging the roots of pain and injustice. We listen carefully, learn humbly, and partner locally to pursue holistic restoration, serving with dignity and hope as we participate with God in self-propagating renewal that transforms lives, communities, and systems over time.
The presence of God is the source of our life and power. We intentionally create unhurried space to encounter God, listen to His voice, and respond in obedience. As we host His presence, we believe He shapes us into a people marked by love, humility, and bold faith. We are building a church faithfully attentive to the Lord, flowing in the gifts of the Spirit, and participating in a Jesus-renewal that touches every sphere of society.
We believe healthy leaders—spiritually, emotionally, relationally, and vocationally—are essential for sustained kingdom and societal impact. We intentionally invest in men and women across both church and marketplace contexts, equipping them to lead with integrity, courage, and wisdom. We desire a deep bench of leaders who are biblically formed, well-supported, and committed to helping others flourish.
Making room is an act of obedience, faith, and hospitality, reflecting the expansive heart of God. Through growing capacity, new expressions, expanded volunteer opportunities, and relational pathways, we seek to remove barriers and extend invitation so more people can encounter Jesus and build community. We are forging a network of highly relational church expressions across our region and state, united by a shared commitment to theological unity and collaborative restorative mission.
As we step into 2026, we are excited to introduce these strategic steps which will guide us through this year. These new initiatives are shaped to help us live out our mission and vision with greater impact. Each step is a deliberate move toward deeper faith, stronger community, and greater Kingdom influence. Together, let’s embrace these opportunities and watch God work in extraordinary ways!
With faith and discernment, we are preparing to become a multi-location church in 2027 as a timely response to what God is doing among us. This year, we will focus on building the right leadership team, clarifying a healthy and reproducible model, discerning future locations, and laying strong spiritual, relational, and operational foundations. Our aim is increased capacity to make disciples, invest in the next generation, engage communities, and host God’s presence in new places.
We are integrating the Family Restoration Center with the life of the Church, strengthening a shared, gospel-centered vision for restoration in our region. This year includes expanding our counseling ministry to provide accessible, Christ-centered care, and creatively growing the woodshop ministry as a restorative and vocational expression that builds dignity and skill. The Center is our primary local restorative ministry expression, reflecting our commitment to holistic and systemic renewal through partnership, compassion, and lasting transformation.
In response to kingdom growth in 2025 and the flourishing of our first Saturday night service, we are adding a second Saturday worship service. This fifth weekend gathering provides much-needed new capacity and allows us to pastor our church with great intentionality and care. Additionally, it will serve as a strategic training environment working to launch teams, develop leaders, and implement new systems that support reproducible rhythms throughout our church.
This fall, we will invite our church into Build the Future, a generosity initiative resourcing the next season of ministry at Mountain Springs Church. We are saturating this work in prayer as we seek God’s clarified vision, scope, and missional alignment. In the fall, we will engage the church in giving toward a refresh of the Adventure Way campus and seed resources for campus expansion—funding staffing, facilities, and launch needs for our first campus and preparing the way for future sites.
We are enriching our discipleship offerings by continuing to offer Rooted and by introducing Alpha in a beta test phase for seekers and those exploring faith. Alpha offers a hospitable space for honest questions, while Rooted guides people into spiritual practices, biblical formation, community, and mission. Together, they form a clear discipleship pathway. With increased pastoral focus and leader development, we aim to disciple more people into spiritual depth, maturity, and missional living.
As we pastor for the long-term, we are prioritizing the health, clarity, and strength of our staff and volunteer teams. We are trusting God to bring the right people into key staff roles, cultivating a unified and directional Senior Leadership Team, and investing in a culture marked by trust, joy, and shared mission. We are also committed to empowering and mobilizing more SERVE Team volunteers than ever before—equipping people to lead, serve, and flourish as together we steward the next season of ministry.
