No matter how young or old, regardless of race, whether male or female, rich, poor, or somewhere in between...each of us wants to belong. In belonging, we all seek to fulfill two important needs in our lives, the need for security, and the need for significance. Each of us wants to feel secure in his or her relationships. We want to know that we are accepted and that we won't be rejected when we don't live up to another person's expectations, and don't we all want to know that if we were not around that we would be missed?
At Metro Christian Center, we want to introduce you to someone who said He would never leave you (That's real security!) and that as the Good Shepherd, He would leave the ninety-nine sheep in the fold to search for the one lamb that was lost (How could anyone be more significant?!). We are working to build a place where people of every race, age, gender and social status can find the love of Jesus Christ that opens the way for each of us to belong.
Metro Christian Center is a family. A family is a place where the members are loved and accepted by one another. It's a place where we are encouraged and lifted up when we fail, while at the same time we are held accountable for our lifestyles. Everyone needs a family... because that's where you belong.
