Purpose Driven Vision

Five Purposes

Our purpose at Rose Hill Alliance Church is to bring people to Jesus and into membership in his family, build them up into maturity, train them for ministry, send them out in mission, in order to magnify God.

As a purpose-driven church, we have a great commitment to the Great Commandment and the Great Commission (Matthew 22:35-40 and Matthew 28: 18-20)! We are committed to fulfilling all five purposes Christ ordained for his church to accomplish:

· To celebrate God's presence in worship
· To educate God's people through discipleship
· To communicate God's Word through evangelism
· To incorporate God's family through fellowship
· To demonstrate God's love through ministry

We want to grow stronger through worship, deeper through discipleship, larger through evangelism, warmer through fellowship, and broader through ministry.

Baseball Diamond

To help us accomplish our vision of producing Christians who are balanced and complete, we use the model of a baseball diamond. Balanced spiritual growth happens when we mature in all five areas (as identified on the baseball diamond below) in order of the bases. These five areas not only describe the purposes of our church, but also the purposes of every individual Christian.
To help growth in all these areas, we are developing Core Classes designed to help every believer achieve the vision of balanced spiritual growth.



Next Steps

If you're ready to take your next step at Rose Hill Church, our Core Classes are the perfect places to start. We offer these one-day classes at various times throughout the year, and typically meet on a Sunday afternoon for about three hours. Included are all your class materials and a tasty meal. Childcare is not available. Every class ends with a covenant that leads you closer to spiritual maturity. The acronym CLASS stands for "Christian Life and Service Seminars."
