MOVEMENT
Our collective question at New Wine is:
What is God doing in my life and what am I doing about it?
This question puts us on a movement together to:
Engage in Story
Everyone has a story and our story is always unfolding. We value people, their story, and God’s story, so we share our stories in community and our story as a community. Who are you? Who does God say you are? God has begun a good work in you, do you believe that?
Develop our Gifts
Our story is filled with experiences that shape and develop our gifts and abilities, unique to who we are. We desire to engage and grow in our gifts to glorify God and enrich our community.
Discover our Passion
What keeps you up at night? What gets you out of bed in the morning? What makes you come alive? Our story, our gifts and the work of the Holy Spirit ignite in us a passion, a passion that warrants a response.
Our passion is also what we suffer for. When we follow Jesus, we come to see that we suffer for those and that which is broken and join Jesus in the renewal of all things.
Live with Purpose
Back to the essential question: “What is God doing in me/us/in our midst and what am I/we going to do about it?” We believe that our story, gifts and passion have purpose and so our response to God is, “Here I am, use me.” When we follow Jesus and live with purpose we are stretched and grow as we join Jesus in the renewal of all things.
