Changing Lives Through God's Love

"For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life."  John 3:16 (NLT)

 Changing Lives by bringing people to a knowledge of who God Is

But how can people call for help if they don't know who to trust? And how can they know who to trust if they haven't heard of the One who can be trusted? And how can they hear if nobody tells them? And how is anyone going to tell them, unless someone is sent to do it?Romans 10:14-15a (MSG)

 Changing Lives by bringing people into a right relationship with God

With your whole being you embrace God setting things right, and then you say it, right out loud: "God has set everything right between him and me!"  Romans 10:10 (MSG)

 Changing Lives by growing people in their faith with God

Until we come to such unity in our faith and knowledge of God's Son that we will be mature and full grown in the Lord, measuring up to the full stature of Christ.  Ephesians 4:13 (NLT)

 Changing Lives by equipping people to share the love of God 

He is the one who gave these gifts to the church: the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, and the pastors and teachers. Their responsibility is to equip God's people to do his work and build up the church, the body of Christ.  Ephesians 4:11-12 (NLT)

 Changing Lives by worshiping God as a lifestyle

But the time is coming--it has, in fact, come--when what you're called will not matter and where you go to worship will not matter. "It's who you are and the way you live that count before God. Your worship must engage your spirit in the pursuit of truth.  John 4:23 (MSG)
