Our Purpose

We believe that God’s purpose for the church is clearly expressed in Colossians 1:28 which states:

We proclaim him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ.

There are four distinct directives contained within this verse that we identify with the simple acronym A.C.T.S.:

Aquire - We proclaim Him

The Great Commission commands us to go into all the world and preach the Gospel.  At Heartland we preach the Gospel proclaiming Jesus as Lord!  Our weekend services are a great place to invite your friends and family that need to experience God’s power and find true life.

Connect – Admonishing everyone

Real life change happens in the context of relationships. Primarily as you come into a right relationship with Jesus, and continues as you come into healthy relationships with the body of Christ.  Heartland’s Connection Groups provide the perfect place to belong to a group of friends with a goal of growing and maturing spiritually. Our groups meet throughout the week and there is sure to be one that will fit you just right.  So, take a few minutes andfind a small group that’s just right for you.

Train - Teaching everyone with all wisdom

Each one of us is on our own spiritual journey are seeking answers to life’s greatest questions.  Part of the purpose of the church is to teach and train up the body - to come alongside as you discover the answers and find your own purpose in God’s will.  Heartland offers a growth track called theJOURNEY that will help you do just that.

Send - So that we may present everyone perfect in Christ

Ultimately the purpose of the church is to equip you for the work of the ministry.  Heartland believes that the body is most effective only when you find your unique purpose and ministry within the body.  Those who complete theJOURNEY are fully equipped and released to begin taking leadership roles within ministry.  If you are interested in leadership within Heartland it all begins with theJOURNEY.
