Mission of Summit Ridge Community Church: To make disciples who Serve Christ by Serving People.

 

Matthew 28:16-20

 

"It's just stunning to watch churches struggle to get mission statements when there it is, the Great Commission, and they should simply do what it says." -Dallas Willard

 

“If you make disciples, you always get the church. But if you make a church, you rarely get disciples.” -Mike Breen

 

"Christianity without discipleship is always Christianity without Christ.” -Dietrich Bon Hoeffer

“The church is not a theological classroom. It is a conversion, confession, repentance, reconciliation, forgiveness and sanctification center, where flawed people place their faith in Christ, gather to know and love him better, and learn to love others as he designed.” -Paul David Tripp

 

Matthew 22:36-40

 

"You cannot obey the Great Commission until you obey the Great Command" -Al McKay

 

"It is an incredibly difficult task to lead people from self-centered consumerism to being servant-hearted Christians. It is not a task for fainthearted ministers or those who don't like to get their religious robes wrinkled. But it is what the Great Commission is all about" -Rick Warren
