About Chatham Bible Church
-
Chatham Bible Church exists to make disciples of Jesus Christ. We invite you to join us as we worship God and serve our community together.
PRIORITIES / STRATEGIES
What is most important to us this year and how will we pursue it?
Ephesians 4:11-16 - To build up the body of Christ at Chatham with a focus on:
• Maturity
by pursuing spiritual stability
through doctrinal and biblical instruction
...to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes (vs.13-14)
• Health
by pursuing connection with Christ
through ministry-focused prayer
...we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ (v.15)
• Unity
by pursuing loving relationships
through small groups and fellowship
...the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped (v.16)
• Support
by pursuing ministry engagement
through leadership training
...when each part is working properly (v.16)
• Growth
by pursuing missional progress
through evangelism
...makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love (v.16)
VISION
What do we hope to see happen as we seek to build up the body?
A church overflowing with new disciples from our community.
