We believe that every Jesus-follower is entrusted with unique gifts, talents, and passions to fulfill a role within the body of Christ. When all the members of God’s body are doing their part and optimizing their gifts, then the whole “body” is healthy and able to vigorously accomplish its mission, according to I Corinthians 12:14-35: “Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it” (vs. 27).
Our mission is to match each person at Lifehouse Church with a ministry that utilizes their gifts and develops a passion for the work of the church, according to Ephesians 4:15: “From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.”
