Going with the Gospel

What is the basic purpose of any church? As part of our mission plan, we put it like this:

The Parish of Northaw and Cuffley exists to glorify God, to grow disciples, and to share the good news of the gospel in word and action.

We’ve come to the last of our four weeks looking at this purpose together. Over the past three weeks we’ve considered Knowing the Gospel, Growing in the Gospel, and Showing the Gospel. For our final Sunday, we’re thinking about how we can be Going with the Gospel.

What is the basic purpose of any church? As part of our mission plan, we put it like this:

Over the next four weeks we're going to be picking this up in four titles: Knowing the Gospel, Growing in the Gospel, Showing the Gospel, and Going with the Gospel. As we do so, we'll be looking through Paul's second letter to Timothy.

No one serving as a soldier gets entangled in civilian affairs, but rather tries to please his commanding officer. Similarly, anyone who competes as an athlete does not receive the victor’s crown except by competing according to the rules. (2 Timothy 2:4-5)
