Nuestra misión
Es vivir , enseñar y compartir el Evangelio de la gracia de Dios en las esferas de influencia que Dios nos ha dado.
We will Live. Teach. and Share. in all we say and do.
This is surrounded by the Gospel of the Grace of God. This is the good news to the world.
Where we are called to do this is in the spheres of influence that God has given us. This is where we individually work, play, and live but also extends to our church's neighborhood and our missionary extension that we value.
Core Values
No concebimos nuestra iglesia simplemente como un lugar de culto con paredes, techo y puertas abiertas. Creemos que la iglesia es, en realidad, la comunidad de miembros y creyentes que se reúne para practicar la palabra de Dios, celebrar su amor y compartir sus dones.
Nuestros valores fundamentales demuestran lo más importante y cómo debemos vivir para seguir siendo la Iglesia Bethesda. Estos valores guÃan nuestros ministerios, programas y la vida de nuestra iglesia. Por lo tanto, evaluaremos todo lo que hacemos teniendo en cuenta estos cinco valores fundamentales.
Bible Centered
We approach the Bible as of first importance. What we do, what we believe, and what we teach comes from the authority of God’s Word. The Bible is central in all we do, taking precedence over church tradition, a shifting culture and especially, our own opinion (2 Tim. 3:16).
Grace Theology
Abordamos la vida y los programas de la iglesia desde una perspectiva dispensacionalista. En el centro de nuestra postura teológica se encuentra el mensaje que Cristo encomendó al apóstol Pablo acerca del derramamiento de la gracia de Dios en la formación de la Iglesia, la cual está compuesta por todas las personas sin distinción que se acercan a Cristo por la fe (Efesios 3:1-6). Enseñamos y edificamos a los creyentes sobre la importancia de interpretar correctamente la Palabra de Dios (2 Timoteo 2:15).
Grace Living
We put our theology into action by the way we live our lives. We desire that, through Loving Authentic Relationships, we can confront what does not belong, encourage, and bear each other’s burdens so that we address the various struggles in our lives. We desire to avoid the bonds of legalism by demonstrating love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control, against which there is no law (Gal. 5:22, 23).
Multigenerational
We love a multigenerational approach to life and ministry more than we love our own particular preferences. This means we want to approach ministry, programs, and functions with all the different generations in mind and focus. This means our church life will be tailored to all ages to include the youngest to the oldest.
This also means we want our church leadership to reflect the different generations. To achieve this, we commit to pursue training, mentoring, and discipling the next generation so they can take the place of our current leadership (2 Tim. 2:2). We will develop interns and provide genuine opportunities for the next generation to practice their gifts.
Missional
We have a heart for the lost both in our neighborhood and abroad. The Apostle Paul’s heart was to see those who do not know Christ to be transformed and he wanted believers to do everything they could in their speech and conduct to promote Christ as well. We have a desire for our community to know Christ and be transformed by Him (1 Cor. 9:22-23).
We also value foreign missions and thank God for the various spheres of influence he has given us around the world. We will continue to support and encourage missionaries to promote the Gospel of the Grace of God while we do our part where we work, play, and live.
