Palm Beach Baptist Church

Mission:

Our mission is to transform unbelievers into fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ. Because Jesus came to seek and to save the lost, we feel compelled to do the same. But Jesus went beyond rescuing people from hell; He wanted to make them fit for heaven. Through the various sub ministries of the church, we desire people not only to meet Christ but also over time to grow in their faith so that they live obediently to His commands and become conformed to His character.

Vision:

Our vision is to be a biblically functioning community of believers so that Christ’s redemptive purposes can be accomplished in the world. We cannot fulfill Christ’s mission alone as individuals. We are a church because God wants us to be something together and represent Him with our unified diversity. Our goal together is to further His kingdom in our midst, but we also, in obedience to His Great Commission, labor to extend His kingdom worldwide. Our work is not over when we become a biblical community we’re a biblical community so that we can accurately reflect Him to the world.

Core Values:

The Core Values (What We Value)

Naturally, because we are an assembly of diverse individuals, we all have slightly different values with regard to how we go about serving Christ. Yet certain common values unify our efforts and define our distinctive. We can summarize our core values using the following ten statements:

- We believe that lost people matter to God and therefore, ought to matter to the church. This includes the concepts of relational evangelism and evangelism as a process.

- We believe that the church should be culturally relevant while remaining doctrinally pure. This includes the concept of sensitively relating to our culture through our facility, printed materials and use of the arts.

- We believe that Christ-followers should manifest authenticity and yearn for continuous growth. This includes the concepts of personal authenticity, character and wholeness.

- We believe that a church should operate as a unified community of servants with men and women stewarding their spiritual gifts. This includes the concepts of unity, servant hood, spiritual gifts and ministry callings.

- We believe that loving relationships should permeate every aspect of church life. This includes the concepts of love-driven ministry, ministry accomplished in teams and relationship building.

- We believe that life-change happens best in small groups. This includes the concepts of discipleship, vulnerability and accountability.

- We believe that excellence honors God and inspires people. This includes the concepts of evaluation, critical review, intensity, and excellence.

- We believe that churches should be led by those with leadership gifts. This includes the concepts of empowerment, servant leadership, strategic focus and intentionality.
