Queen City Apostolic Church - Charlotte, NC

To worship God To make disciples To grow the church To change the world 1. To worship God. Worship is a beautiful privilege. If nothing else was accomplished in a service, it was worth the trip just to come to praise the Lord. We absolutely believe that everything that has breathe should praise the Lord. We intentionally come to praise the Lord as lively stones. We bring a sacrifice of praise into the house of the Lord, offering up to God exuberant, lively, passionate, heartfelt, spirit filled, life changing, powerful worship. We do this through music, singing, drama, sign language and testimony. Every time we gather together we do our best to make his praise glorious. As we worship God we have another goal in mind: 2. To make disciples. We lift him up that he might draw all men unto himself. We go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. We go after them until we find them. We believe that the primary reason we have been filled with the Holy Spirit is so that we can be witnesses. We leave the 99 and pursue the one that is lost. We live missional lives, looking for every opportunity to make a difference where we can. As we make disciples we have another goal in mind: 3. To grow the church. A strong faith community is a blessing to every believer. We don't just make disciples and send them home to fend for themselves, leaving them detached and scattered randomly throughout the world. We believe that God is calling those disciples to gather in a community of faith, a family of God called the church. In the church they can grow and find support and develop talents and relationships. As the church grows we can begin to: 4. Change the world. As more people become part of the household of faith and as the church grows, the influence of the church grows. We can expand our reach into the world, doing more to help individuals and change our communities. We are called to change the world, to be salt and light, to make war with principalities and powers until all things are subdued under the feet of Jesus Christ. It is impossible for the church to be the church and not make a difference in the earth. It is impossible to put salt on food without the salt making a difference unless the salt has lost its savor, then it can no longer have influence. This is our calling and mission. There is an army rising up. The enemy doesn't like it but he can't stop it. We have come to the kingdom for such a time as this. Come and join us!
