Our Mission

Connecting People With God & Each Other.

Growing Spiritually

Connecting People with God.

We connect with God when we grow spiritually. Growing spiritually occurs through baptism, daily Bible-reading, and praying regularly.

Gathering Together

Connecting People with the Church.

We connect with the Church when we gather together. Gathering together means being involved in a small group, eating together, and resolving conflict.

Giving Back

Connecting People with the World.

We connect with the world when we give back. Giving back includes volunteering, giving, and sharing our story.

Growing Spiritually

Our relationship with Jesus begins by responding to God’s offer of salvation by believing in Jesus for forgiveness of sin, eternal life, and the gift of the Holy Spirit. The response includes repenting of our old way of life and accepting our new call to follow Jesus. It includes the public act of baptism where we follow Jesus’s example and demonstrate our commitment to him by being immersed as an act of our own will.

Gathering Together

Jesus chose a group of twelve men to be in his inner circle of relationships. He spent lots of time with these men, shared important conversations and events with them, and just lived daily life with them. We are committed to the type of genuine biblical community the first Christians practiced. This is best lived out in the context of small groups. We actively participate in these groups and serve as catalysts to connect others into them.

Giving Back

Jesus endorsed the practice of tithing (giving God the first 10% of everything we have). But he went further in challenging us to live financially generous lives. He cautioned against storing up wealth, challenged us to be wise stewards of what we’ve been given, and commended radical generosity. We seek to align ourselves with these biblical principles by living financially generous lives, starting with a tithe and moving toward a life of radical generosity.

Shaping Our Faith and Mission:

Our Values

Jesus is Lord

It is not a mere religious phrase but a profound declaration that shapes our beliefs, actions, and purpose as a church. It reminds us that Jesus’ lordship is all-encompassing, transcending time and space, and it calls us to live out our faith in a way that reflects his love. This foundational value guides us on our journey of faith, challenging us to continually seek his lordship in every aspect of our lives and in the world around us.

Disciple-Making

An active commitment to a lifelong transformational process. It inspires us to continually seek a deeper understanding of Jesus’ teachings and live them authentically in our daily lives. It’s a call to grow in faith, love, and Christlikeness while also sharing the hope and message of Jesus with the world around us.

Missional-Incarnational Impulse

A driving force within Madison Church, urging us to go beyond ourselves, transcend cultural boundaries, and impact lives with the transformative power of the Gospel. It’s a call to engage with intentionality, authenticity, and compassion as we seek to share the love of Christ and bring hope to a world in need.

Community

Madison Church is not merely a group of people who gather; we are a vibrant, mission-driven, and supportive collective. This community is where we unite through shared experiences, rally around causes that transcend our individual lives, and find strength, purpose, and belonging in one another. Our community thrives on unity, diversity, and the shared commitment to making a meaningful difference.

Organic Systems

Our commitment to creating adaptable, efficient, and inclusive structures that support our church’s growth and movement. We value the dynamic nature of our community and our mission, and we aim to establish systems that embrace change, empower individuals, and align with our overarching goal of connecting people with God and each other.

A.P.E.S.T. Culture

A holistic and integrated approach to ministry, where each function plays a vital role in our mission and community’s well-being. It reflects our commitment to being a church that embraces the diverse gifts and callings of its members, continually seeks God’s guidance, and is dedicated to fulfilling the Great Commission by nurturing spiritual growth, outreach, and discipleship.

What We Believe About...

Jesus

Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He endured suffering, crucifixion, and death. On the third day after his death, he rose again. Following Jesus’ resurrection, he ascended into the heavens. Jesus will return one day to fully establish God’s Kingdom on earth, including the bodily resurrection and the promise of eternal life for those who believed.

(Matt. 1:20-23; Mark 15:24-25, 33-34; Mark 16:5-6; Acts 1:9-11; 1 Thess 4:16-17)

People

Salvation is available to anyone who professes their faith in Jesus. His sacrificial death and resurrection reconcile people with God through the forgiveness of sins. Once someone comes to faith, they become an integral part of God’s family within the Church. Believers are to be baptized and regularly participate in communion with one another.

(Rom 10:9; John 3:16; 1 Pet 2:24; Col 1:20; Eph 2:19; 1 Cor 12:27; Matt 28:19-20; 1 Cor 11:23-26)

God

There is one God who exists eternally as three distinct but equally divine persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Each person of the Trinity possesses all divine attributes and qualities and has unique roles in creation, redemption, and ongoing work.

(Matt 3:16-17; 2 Cor 13:14; Col 2:9; Heb 9:14; John 1:3; Eph 1:7-10)

The Holy Spirit

Once someone comes to faith in Jesus, the Holy Spirit indwells them, equipping and empowering them with gifts to build up the Church. Moreover, believers are privileged to experience a Baptism in the Holy Spirit.

(Acts 2:38; 1 Cor 12:4-7; Acts 1:5; Acts 8:14-17)

Divine Healing

God intervenes in our physical, emotional, or spiritual ailments, bringing about restoration, wholeness, or relief. As believers, we should pray for healing, trusting God’s compassion and power to work in our lives.

(Matt 8:16-17; James 5:14-16; Phil 4:6-7; Mark 11:24)

The Bible

The Bible is a collection of divinely inspired and infallible texts that reveals God’s love for humanity and his plan for redemption. It is authoritative for faith and practice.

(2 Tim 3:16-17; 2 Pet 1:20-21; Heb 4:12; Rom 15:4)
