What’s in a name?

We call ourselves Jesus-centered because we live life in Christ, just as Christ is in us.

God wanted to make known to them what is the wealth of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles—this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. We proclaim him as we admonish and teach everyone with all wisdom, so that we might present everyone perfect in Christ.

(Col. 1:27-28)

We call ourselves Gospel-centered because the Good News is that Jesus is alive and he is King.

Certainly, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

(Rom. 10:9)

We call ourselves Bible-centered because the scriptures testify about Jesus.

You search the Scriptures because you think you have eternal life in them. They testify about me!

(John 5:39)

We call ourselves Word-centered because Jesus is the Living Word.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him everything was made, and without him not one thing was made that has been made.

(John 1:1-3)
