Our Vision:
Genesis Church exists so that people far from God can experience a new beginning.
Our Mission:
Our mission is to create a culture and environment that invites people to Belong, to Matter, and to Worship.
Our Values:
Excellence
Whether it is our weekly worship environment, children’s ministry, life groups, or community events, we want to strive to do everything with excellence since we understand that we are doing this for God’s Glory. Simply put, He deserves our very best.
1 Corinthians 10:31 “So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.”
Community
Because relationships are essential to our lives, we will partner together to impact Atoka and the surrounding area with the Gospel of Christ. Teamwork and unity will be of primary importance in every aspect of ministry. Just as every part of our human bodies is important, so every part of the body of Christ is important.
1 Corinthians 12:27 “Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.”
Growth
A healthy body grows and so does a healthy church. Genesis Church will be very intentional about creating environments for personal growth and community growth. Our weekly worship experience will be an environment that we can invite family, friends, co-workers, and guests to where they experience a new beginning with Christ. Our Life Groups will be an environment where Christ followers can do life together as they grow in their relationship with Him. Our Service Teams will be an environment where people can invest their abilities, time, and treasure to grow the kingdom of God.
2 Peter 3:18 “But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”
Generosity
Genesis Church will be a generous church. The most recognizable verse in the entire Bible, John 3:16, tells us plainly that because God loved us, He gave. And because of His love for us, we will give generously. We ask everyone that desires to be a part of Genesis Church to commit to give generously and consistently to the ministry that God has entrusted to us.
Matthew 10:8 “Freely you have received, freely give.”
Service
The passion and heart of Genesis Church is to reach this are for Christ and we will demonstrate that by serving the needs in this area. In every way possible we will foster an environment of serving others and specifically by serving the people of Atoka and the surrounding communities.
Mark 10:45 “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
