Southview Baptist Church exists to lead people to Know God, Grow in faith, and Go in God’s power. This simple statement is the catalyst for all we do as a church body. To that end, Southview Baptist Church will fulfill the Great Commandment and the Great Commission in the use of this process.
To Know — we are created for a growing, loving, passionate relationship with God. We seek to lead people to know God by sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The lost will be introduced to a loving God who desires to know them personally. Believers will be encouraged to express love to God and continue to grow in their relationship with Him. The primary method for this purpose is the Sunday Morning Worship Services.
To Grow – we will help believers develop toward full Christian maturity and train them in ministry by promoting personal spiritual growth, accountability, and discipleship through Biblical teaching. The Journey Small Groups are the primary method for this purpose as people grow and mature best in a loving environment in fellowship with other believers.
To Go – we will lead believers to minister to the needs of others and lead those who are not believers to a saving faith in Jesus Christ. We will help believers discover their spiritual gifts and help them find a place of service/ministry through Southview Baptist Church. We will help believers better understand how to live a life of relational evangelism.
All members of Southview Baptist Church will be encouraged to be involved in each of these areas each week. We will challenge them to participate in, or attend, a worship service (Know), to be involved in a small group (Grow), and serve in some area of ministry (Go) each week.
