EXPLORE! Series
Explore! is a 3-week session designed for people who want to learn more about Seattle First Baptist. It is sponsored by the Membership and Engagement Commission and presented by SFBC pastors, staff, leadership and members.
Following is an invitation from Pastor Tim Phillips:
Take a look inside – inside these doors, this story, this community, and into your own heart. What do you see? What are you looking for? What draws you in? What challenges you? What inspires you? What touches you? What makes you wonder?
This is the invitation and these are the questions at the heart of what it means to Explore! with us. Our Mission Statement says:
We are a community of faith united in exploring what it means to follow the way of Jesus Christ, to be a people of God and to love and care for our neighbors. As a church we will know no circles of exclusion, no boundaries we will not cross and no loyalties above those which we owe to God.
We take this mission seriously as we invite you to:
Explore what it means for you and for us to follow the way of Jesus Christ;
Engage in this community of faith as we unite our lives in exploring what it means to be a people of God, loving and caring for our neighbors; and to
Belong, in whatever sense that is true for you, knowing that, as a church, we strive to be a community that knows no circles of exclusion.
So we invite you on this journey with us. While we have provided a number of pages of material, what we most want are opportunities for conversation. We want to get to know you and for you to get to know us. Relationship is at the root of exploring, engaging and belonging.
Please do not hesitate to ask questions or to offer your own insights. Remember, we are all – together -- exploring what it means to follow the way of Jesus Christ. And we are honored that you are on that journey with us.
