at First Presbyterian Church
First Presbyterian Church
of Tecumseh will…
1. Introduce people to
Jesus.
2. Disciple believers through relationships in groups.
3. Deliver real help with human hurts and hopes.
The church exists to
introduce people to Jesus Christ. We are to share our experience
with Jesus with others. To introduce fixes
our attention on the worshiper, the Sunday schoolchild, the
young person at youth group, or the person we see each day of
the week. We are simply asked to tell others what Jesus has and
is doing in our lives. Sometimes we speak with words, sometimes
with actions.
Disciple
draws our focus to the spiritual journey we each travel. As
Christians God wants us to grow in our discipleship. We expect
to grow as we help one another and grow in our relationships as
a family. Disciple is a verb. We are asked to disciple one
another just as a family helps each member grow towards his or
her own potential. Ultimately our discipleship is lived out in
our walk with Jesus and is demonstrated in the “Marks of
Discipleship”: Scripture, Prayer, Worship, Giving,
Relationships, Spiritual Growth, and Encouragement.
To deliver
real help takes the disciple to the role of servant. It
acknowledges that we do not live alone as a Christian or as a
community of faith, but we are in the midst of a world with real
hurts and hopes. We are called by God to make a difference in
this world.
