"Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it. What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul?"
Matthew 16:24-27a (NIV)

The Vision of ONE&ALL:
1. We are unapologetically evangelistic.
We see all people as created in the image of God and loved by a God who loves them so much that He sent His one and only Son to die for them.
One hope, one life, in Christ.
2. We are unapologetically Word-centered.
"So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ."
Ephesians 4:11-13 (NIV)
3. We are unapologetically driven to authentic worship.
Church is not a consumer experience. This is the gathering of God’s people to worship and experience God.
4. We will unapologetically focus on the next generation.
5. We will move forward toward a fully devoted follower of Jesus Christ in every home in our valley.
6. We are unapologetically a local, regional and global church.
Local: A prevailing church in each community
Regional: Surround this valley with love and compassion, healing and forgiveness
Global: Complete the task of world evangelism in preparation for the Lord’s return
There is a Kingdom that will never end.

Matthew 16:24-27a (NIV)
"“Then the man who had received one bag of gold came. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘I knew that you are a hard man, harvesting where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed. So I was afraid and went out and hid your gold in the ground. See, here is what belongs to you.’“His master replied, ‘You wicked, lazy servant! So you knew that I harvest where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed? Well then, you should have put my money on deposit with the bankers, so that when I returned, I would have received it back with interest.‘So take the bag of gold from him and give it to the one who has ten bags. For whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them. And throw that worthless servant outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’"
Matthew 25:24-30 (NIV)
When we stand before Jesus will He will say, ”What did you do with what I entrusted to you?”
