Christianity is about a return to the gospel that Jesus preached,
and that the apostles believed and preached, a gospel we like to call
The First Gospel. It is about a return to the gospel that once-for-all
radically changed the world. It is about being faithful the the text
of Holy Scripture, not going beyond it, and not falling short of it.
It is about engaging the culture with the gospel of Christ, and following
Jesus’ example of love and compassion, grace and truth, worship
and mission, life and death, and everything else in between.We seek
to be radically “vintage” in all that we do, rather than
being radically “novel” in our approach to ministry. This
statement says something about us, but it also says something about
the majority (with wonderful exceptions of course) of modern Chrisitanity.
Vintage Christianity seeks to be a part of the resurgence of vibrant,
biblical, passionate, God-centered, truth driven Christians who treasure
the supremacy of Christ above all things, and who desire to spread
that passion to the world. Vintage Christianity seeks to minister
to the culture with the good news about Jesus, following in the footsteps
of Jesus and his apostles.Vintage Christianity is a missional approach
to church life and ministry, with an emphasis on theological purity,
and a deep appreciation for the best of our Christian heritage, the
heritage that began with Jesus and his apostles. |
