For many, if you are a Christian, you will be the only Bible most people read. Therefore, we take what Paul said to the Corinthians intently when he said that we are “Christ’s Ambassadors”. Each of us who takes on the identity of “Christian” becomes Christ’s ambassador – or christou apostoloi in Greek, which we shorten to the first letters “Chi” and “Alpha” or XA. Our goal is to see individuals reconciled to Christ and be sent out into the marketplace, the church, and the entire world to proclaim the good news of Christ with their lives. We have a weekly worship gathering, discipleship groups, activities, retreats, and mission trips that all work to that end.
The backbone of our ministry, and Jesus’ for that matter, is/was discipleship. God has built us to be in community with one another and trying to operate outside of that, is a bit like a car trying to run with water in the tank. We are all in need of being discipled, and making disciples. Small groups are the heart of our ministry and enable us to join together and be transformed through real accountability, in-depth Bible Study, and faith-filled prayer.
