  • The Struggle

    Posted: December 8th, 2006
    by Kasey Newbold

    A couple of weeks ago I was with a group of people who were asked the question, “What do you stand for?” Of course someone immediately blurted out, “If you don’t stand for something you’ll fall for anything!” And my mind raced to a dozen different ridiculous answers like, “the pledge of allegiance” or “a shower”; answers that clearly had nothing to do with the question at hand.

    Now, being the group of good Christians that we were, we finally calmed down and started giving all of the right Sunday school answers, you know, “truth, justice, and the American way” (I think that was superman actually, but Jesus could have said it)! Then my friend Shane spoke up and simply said, “the struggle, I think I stand for the struggle.” I immediately connected with what he had just said, and I thought to myself, “how beautiful.” more »

mosaic podcast

misson

Mosaic exists to encourage people to begin their faith journey, to create a community where all can belong, to introduce people to a real Jesus in whom they can believe, and to encourage people to grow in their relationships with Christ and each other, so that together, we can all be whole.

core passion

Mosaic’s Core Passion is Worship. We worship by teaching the life changing truth of Scripture through culturally relevant environments and methods. We worship by striving for excellence in all we do, believing that excellence honors God and inspires people. We worship by creating authentic community through our transparency and loving relationships. We worship by sharing the Good News that God desires to know and be known by all people.

vision

To become a faith community in Irvington that daily lives out the gospel of Jesus Christ in all of its beauty through creative teaching, embracing and emphasizing the arts, equipping believers for ministry, acts of service, and transformational discipleship.

beliefs

We believe that the Bible (both the Old and New Testament) is the Word of God, and is therefore completely true as it was originally revealed by God to its human authors. 2 Timothy 3:15-16, 2 Peter 1:20-21

We believe in God the Father, the maker of heaven and earth. We believe that God is eternal, He always was and always will be. We believe that God is not far from us, and desires to know and be known by all people. Genesis 1, Isaiah 40:28, James 4:8

We believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God. We believe that Jesus was sent to earth in the form of a man to redeem the world. He is the Messiah, or Savior, who died on a cross to pay the penalty for our sin, He arose from the dead three days later and ascended to heaven. Matthew 16:16, Philippians 2:6-8; John 3:16, 1Corinthians 15:3-4, Acts 1:1-2

We believe that the Holy Spirit is the indwelling presence of God in our lives. He empowers and emboldens us for works of service; and He enables us to understand and live out God’s will in our lives. 1 Corinthians 3:16, 1 Corinthians 12:7, John 16:13-15, Acts 1:8

We believe that all people are made in the image of God our creator, and therefore have inherent worth and value. We have been separated from God by our own selfish and disobedient attitudes and choices, known as sin. God desires to be reunited with us, and has made this possible through His Son Jesus. Genesis 1:27, Romans 3:23, Romans 5:9-12

We believe that Salvation is a gift from God that cannot be earned, but is given freely to those who accept His Son, Jesus. We believe that upon accepting Jesus one should repent of their sins (turn away from their selfish and disobedient attitudes and choices), confess Jesus as their Lord and Savior (tell others what they believe about Jesus), be baptized in His name (immersed in water as a symbolic death and resurrection), and then live daily for Him (trading our desires and choices for His desires and choices). John 3:16, Ephesians 2:8-9, Acts 2:38, Romans 10:9-10, Romans 14:7-8
