VISION

For the body of Christ to grow collectively, in unity for the cause of Christ's mission.


SLOGAN

The place where our worship as well as our walk in Christ is our witness.


MISSION STATEMENT

“THE GREATER IDEAL CHURCH is committed to intentionally presenting Jesus to people by embodying His life, His love and His service. This commitment to being like Jesus is a commitment to follow Jesus’ teaching, His principles, His love for God and His love for people.”


VISION STATEMENT

Our purpose is to present Jesus to the world by the way we live, our relationships, our service, and our worship and through God’s Word. To empower those who are powerless and give voice to those who have been silenced by society, culture and oppressive systems. To nurture, cultivate and inspire our youth to become all that God has called them to be, by encouraging them to fulfill their dreams. To strengthen our families and our communities by creating space to train men, women, husbands, wives, fathers, mothers, boys and girls on how to live as Christians.


OUR BELIEFS

We Believe in God

We believe there is only one true and living God. He in essence is immutable and infinite. He is not only a reality; He is the Ultimate Reality, an intelligent Spirit, and the Creator of all. He is God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit


We Believe in Jesus

We believe Jesus is the Savior, Lord Christ, and the incarnate reality of God. He is the walking revelation of God’s love to humanity; He embodies grace; Jesus is one-hundred percent God and one-hundred percent man. He died on the cross for the redemption of God’s creation; He got up on the third day with all power in heaven and earth in His hands


We Believe in the Holy Spirit

We believe the Holy Spirit is Christ in present tense empowering the believer, energizing the church and encouraging Christians that God is still with us. The Holy Spirit convicts us of sin, points us to the truth, and leads us into righteousness.


We Believe in the Church

We believe the church is Christ’s bride and His body in which to witness to the world through word and sacrament. The church is a fellowship of regenerated men and women called out to live together in community life.


We Believe in Scripture

We believe that the scripture is God’s word; it is His written authority for the Church. The scripture was given to ordinary men and women through inspiration; the scripture is inerrant in principle and infallible in content.
