Many have asked me why missions is so important here at BCC? The reason is because missions is important to God. If we are going to be faithful to "go into all the world and make disciples" we cannot ignore the world or approach missions as if it's optional. That is not the heart of God. Have a church that is "glocal" in missions (Global and local) we continue to keep our hearts and minds on lost people. We don't forget that people need Jesus. From a new church plant in Michigan to the orphans of Haiti to a Bible College in Addis Ababa, Africa to Russia..people need Jesus. If we reach out, and it is a priority it will become a natural by product of our lives as God's people. We will reach out to our friends and family. We will touch them with the compassionate, powerful, unconditional love of God and lead them to him through Christ. Outreach must be the heart beat of every local church, because it is God's!
Blessings
