Where are we going and why are we here?
We believe that God calls His people to more than simply gathering weekly. He calls us for a purpose and a plan. At Southcoast Church we believe this is the specific vision and direction that He has given us. Basically, this is where we are headed:
- God has called us to be a body of mature, passionate, world changing leaders who set a standard of Christianity worth living for and that Jesus came and died for
- We are to prepare and equip every person that walks through ours doors to lead the life god created them for!
- The majority will carry the minority, not the few 'hired hands' doing all the work!
- We are to bring people through into a real, mature faith.
- We are to be a uniting force in this city and the cities around us, bringing together the Church for the purposes that God has for us.
- We are to be an outpost to San Diego, Mexico and South America, a gateway through which many churches will be planted.
- We are to be a generous church that supports, blesses and assists churches, businesses and individuals in need on a daily basis with food, finances, time, skills and materials that will advance the Kingdom of God.
- We are to be a church that is always focused outward, always reaching out to the lost, broken, wounded, dying, young and old. A church that is relevant and known to be here for the 'sinners' not just the saints.
- We are called to be a church of hundreds and then thousands of passionate people, so that we can go out into the nations and impact the world!
- We are called to be a model church, doing things Biblically, breaking every limitation that religion has put upon God's people and His Will!
