Summary of New Covenant Church Vision 2025 by Pastor Bryan Hudson

The 2025 vision, rooted in the church's constitution and the will of God, emphasizes collective purpose and unity under God's guidance. The theme, "Each One Reach One," calls every individual to focus on personal responsibility in reaching and impacting one person at a time, mirroring Jesus' approach of compassion and attention to the individual.

Key Points:

1. Foundational Scripture:

   • Psalm 65:11 ("You crown the year with your goodness, and your paths drip with abundance").
   • Luke 15:7 ("More joy in heaven over one sinner who changes heart and life than over 99 righteous people").
   • Galatians 5:13 ("Through love, serve one another").

2. Vision Principles:

   • God's vision is greater than personal ambitions, and individual purpose is discovered within God's purpose.
   • Prioritize adapting personal priorities to align with God's kingdom priorities.
   • True joy in heaven stems from repentance and transformation, not material achievements.

3. Theme: "Each One Reach One":

   • Emphasizes individual impact rather than crowd-focused goals.
   • Encourages empathy, seeing and valuing individuals beyond their external circumstances.
   • Challenges members to engage meaningfully, reflecting Jesus' compassion for individuals within multitudes.

4. Jesus' Examples of Reaching the One:

   • The lost sheep (Luke 15).
   • The woman with the issue of blood (Mark 5).
   • Blind Bartimaeus (Mark 10).

5. Cultural Shift:

   • Recognize the kingdom's values over societal norms, moving from self-centered perspectives to collective and kingdom-oriented thinking.
   • Replace idealism (unrealistic expectations) with actionable ideals grounded in love and service.

6. Call to Action:

   • Visit the vision webpage and engage in reflection and participation.
   • Focus on actionable steps that align with the vision of loving God, loving people, and serving the world.

The message concludes with a prayer of gratitude and encouragement for the congregation to embody the vision of reaching one person at a time with God's love and purpose.
