Our Mission = MD4
We believe that Jesus Christ has called us to Make & Mature Disciples, and to be Ministering & Missional Disciples.
The Gospel & The Great Commission
In the Gospel of Matthew 28:19-20 and in Acts 1:8 & 2:42, we find the church’s core mission in life. Very simply, it is to be a witness of God’s Amazing Grace (unmerited love) found in Jesus Christ, and to tell everyone about this wonderful Gospel (Good News) Message.
God's Design & Reconciliation
When God created us, He did so that we would have an eternal relationship with Him. Though our disobedience brought spiritual death, God sent His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to rescue us and restore us back into a right relationship with Him forever.
Faith & Repentance
Salvation is freely offered to all through faith and repentance in Jesus Christ. As disciples, we are called to grow from spiritual babies into mature followers who help others know Him.
The Four Pillars of MD4
How Fairview Baptist Church puts discipleship into action daily.
Make Disciples
As disciples of Jesus Christ, we are called to “Go” and make disciples of all nations and people groups, sharing God’s forgiveness and salvation offered to all of mankind through faith and repentance in Jesus Christ.
Mature Disciples
When we come to faith in Jesus Christ, we are newborn spiritual babies. We are called to grow into Christ-likeness through regular study of the Scriptures, prayer, and walking in obedience together.
Ministering Disciples
Each one of us has been gifted by God for His good works. Ministry is seen in serving children's classes, meeting local community needs, leading worship, keeping church grounds clean, and encouraging one another.
Missional Disciples
Our reach as Christians is not limited to our local neighborhood. We engage in missional endeavors serving different language groups locally, taking mission trips across continents, and supporting global gospel work.
