The suburban expressions of “the good life” is actually full of brokenness from the fall…But the gospel offers a better way—

We were created to be on this mission with God. It’s not just one department, the missions department, or one of many… No, “missions” is the point of God’s creation of his church!

We were made by God to work! We create and provide and order and rule over God’s creation in our work. We reveal who God is in our work. Work is hard because of the fall not because of something inherently wrong with work itself. We are now working to help push back sin and reveal God’s kingdom—a kingdom free from frustrated work.

God designed us to be loved by him and loved by others. If you are moving toward God and toward others, you are headed toward integration and renewal. But to turn from him toward isolation will lead to disintegration and decay. We were designed to be known and loved.

Overall: Church Roles and Leadership
Our Church Leadership

Across denominations and throughout history, churches have had a variety of roles and positions. These range from priests, nuns, pastors, deacons, elders, bishops, ministers, evangelists, staff members and administrators. It can be quite confusing. In this article, I'd like to simplify these titles and positions by focusing on the leadership roles described in the New Testament.
