aboutMission & Values
Mission
We exist to lead people into maturing relationships with Jesus Christ
Our Driving Force
Our driving force is the Gospel of Jesus Christ - that through Him, God is making all things new. There is great freedom and joy that comes from living in this reality. We have been forgiven by God and restored to a relationship with our heavenly Father. He does this, not for those who think they have it all together, but he loves broken and repentant people. At Redeemer, we make no false-promises that God fixes “all things” now, but he is making all things new and this reality brings freedom and joy as we continue to struggle each day.
Our Core Values
Gospel-centric - Because we believe redemption is the biggest thing God has done since Creation, we will align our lives to his purposes through repentance and faith. Every ministry of our church must be focused on sharing this good news with others in our city and in our world.
Culturally Engaged - Since we have been created in the image of a creative God, we also create. We powerfully communicate the message of Christ to our culture as we engage in the arts and interact with the salient ideas of our day.
Authenticity / Emotionally Transparent - Because the Triune God has loved us in our brokenness, we can live in courageous vulnerability, making the incarnation of Jesus our model for loving well.
Relationally Transformational - Because transformation happens only in relationship as we receive Christ and walk with him, we will journey with all who will walk with us toward God and toward serving our city.
Unity in Diversity - The church is called to embrace people of diverse backgrounds with a Spirit-given unity. That means though we may be very different from each other, in humility we will celebrate our diversity and learn from those with whom we differ, whether in culture, politics, theology or over crunchy vs. smooth peanut butter.
Prayer Engagement - Prayer engages the work of the Holy Spirit, the indispensable agent of any ministry. We are committed to developing lives of private and corporate prayer for our church, our city and the nations.
About Church of the Redeemer
Who We Are
This is where we tell you that we are the next, great, up-and-coming, full-service and exciting church in Atlanta!
Uh…right. Just one problem. We’re not.
What we ARE is a community of people looking for Jesus together. We are committed to worshiping God, loving each other well, serving and beautifying the city (primarily through commitments to mercy and to the arts) and communicating the liberating Gospel of God in Jesus....
