Vision is seeing where you are going and knowing how to get there.
Proverbs 29:18 NIV
Where there is no vision, the people perish.
Redeemer Church exists to see Christ exalted in our church, community, and world.
Philippians 2:1-11 NIV
Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy completely being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind.Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit.Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death—even death on a cross! Therefore God exalted himto the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Christ Exalted in our Church
Christ Exalted in our Community
Christ Exalted in our World
Redeemer Church’s Mission is to lead people into the Presence of God, devotion to His Word, authentic fellowship with others, and discovering their ministry.
“Vision without action is merely a dream. Action without vision just passes the time. Vision with action can change the world.” — Joel Barker
