Mission & Vision

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.
Matthew 28:19-20

Our mission is to make disciples of Jesus Christ


The 5 Keys of Discipleship  

With God all things are possible and with His guidance you can be a high-impact Christian that changes the world for Christ. 

His Commandments

Love God, Love People


Jesus taught us that these are the two greatest commandments:
Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law? Jesus replied: ’Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’  This is the first and greatest commandment.  And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’  All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments. (Matthew 22:36-40) 
 
A United Methodist church built on the inerrant truth of the Bible, Mount Pisgah shares the abiding love of God by caring for one another, and reaching into our neighborhoods, our community, and the world with the Good News of salvation.

Our Mission

Making Disciples of Jesus Christ Here, There, and Everywhere.

Making Disciples of Jesus Christ
We are a vital community of believers who take The Great Commission seriously.  God will bless our church and those who we serve because of our steadfast commitment to this fundamental calling from our Lord and Savior.

Here, There, and Everywhere
We frame the Great Commission in light of Jesus’ promises just prior to His Ascension:
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. (Acts 1:8)

Our mission field refers to physical places, but also constituencies…
By “Here” we mean embracing those people who walk through our doors in search of spiritual meaning, particularly focused on our discipling and shepherding efforts
By “There” we mean our larger immediate circle, including our local community and North Georgia.  We strive to show love and compassion through our Service and Caring ministries (NFCC, Disaster Relief, Nursing Homes, Celebrate Recovery, etc.).  Our congregants will have a bias to be invitational to individuals and to our broader local community.
By “Everywhere” we mean outside of our North Georgia region, to a national and international circle (Global Missions, Denominational Work, etc.)
 
We will continually seek God’s Will as we determine how and where we use the resources He has provided to us.

Our Vision

A Vital Church, Transforming Lives, Expanding God's Kingdom

A Vital Church
We are a passionate community of believers that extend out in a series of generational, cultural, and vocational branches -- rooted in the wholeness, health and vitality of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

I am the true vine, and my father is the gardener … Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. (John 15:1-4)

Transforming Lives

Our spirit is renewed and hearts are transformed. Here the Body of Christ takes shape. Christ’s grace, mercy and salvation have made us a new creation, but His work in us is far from over.

Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. (Romans 12:2)

Growing God’s Kingdom

We strive to grow Christ’s kingdom in breadth and depth by being His hands and feet, by loving those in our lives as Christ first loved us. We give hope to the hopeless, shelter to the fatherless, a compass for the lost, a voice for those who cannot speak on their own.

You will know them by their fruits. (Matthew 7:16)
