CHURCH MINISTRY APPROACH
Our vision of being a caring church that is both spiritually nurturing and socially responsible emerges from our commitment to the teachings of Jesus. We hold to the prominent biblical theme that conceives salvation as a matter of the mind, body, and soul. In harmony with this doctrine of salvation and successful living essentials, Metropolitan’s ministry approach seeks to holistically address the human condition by working to help meet the basic necessities of God’s people–particularly the most vulnerable.
We are called to liberate minds, bodies, and souls from forces that bind, oppress, and prevent people from flourishing in life. In a time when people are overwhelmed with challenges and burdens, we believe unchanging biblical truths give us the answers to meet them head-on. Through the balanced application of God’s Word, we learn how to rightly manage our lives; and experience victory in our relationships, marriages, parenting and careers.
