Our Mission

The mission of Stonecreek Church is to lead people to pursue life in Jesus as their greatest passion.


Jesus came that we might experience life to the full (John 10:10). With tenacity, we are committed to introducing people to life in Jesus and how to walk in relationship with Him. Simply put, our message is Jesus’ message of restoring life.

Our Core Verse

Jesus announced His life-giving message of freedom in His first public teaching (Luke 4) as He quoted the Prophet Isaiah (Isaiah 61):

        The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me,
          because the LORD has anointed me
          to preach good news to the poor.
          He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
          to proclaim freedom for the captives
          and release from darkness for the prisoners,

        2 to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor
           and the day of vengeance of our God,
           to comfort all who mourn,

        3 and provide for those who grieve in Zion—
          to bestow on them a crown of beauty
          instead of ashes,
          the oil of gladness
          instead of mourning,
          and a garment of praise
          instead of a spirit of despair.
          They will be called oaks of righteousness,
          a planting of the LORD
          for the display of his splendor.

        4 They will rebuild the ancient ruins
          and restore the places long devastated;
          they will renew the ruined cities
          that have been devastated for generations.

Our Culture

We are clear on our part in the cause of Christ, and we use these guiding values and motives in creating ministry expressions that lead people to pursue life in Jesus as their greatest passion. For a fuller understanding of how these values shape our ministry, listen to the teaching series, “UR The Church", August 9, 2009 in our Media section.

        Loving Broken People
        Expressing that people matter to God.

        Restoring the Heart
        Transforming lives from the inside out.

        Walking with God
        Involving God in everyday life.

        Living in Freedom
        Releasing people from what holds them back.

 

How We Do Ministry

Our expressions of ministry are strategically aligned among three clearly defined components, and demonstrate how we go about leading people to pursue life in Jesus as their greatest passion.

        Inspire Life
        Awakening people to life in Jesus through inspiring gatherings that communicate
        the message of the Bible.

        Pursue Life
        Creating relational environments and experiences that engage the heart to
        move beyond occasional Christianity into fullness of life in Jesus.

        Extend Life
        Mobilizing people to demonstrate Jesus’ life by extending His love to others.
