MISSION

To make disciples through Christ centered worship, service, and community.

VISION

To focus on the Head, Hands, and the Heart.

What does the Head mean in our vision?

We believe that Jesus is the Head of our Church. Focusing on the Head is all about knowing who Jesus is. In order to know Jesus, we must believe He is who He says he is. We can do this through discipleship. In particularly learning environments. This can be bible studies, book studies, or any environment that helps strengthen our knowledge of Christ, and grow in an academic arena.

What do the Hands mean in our vision?

The Hands is in reference to the people. The church is not a building but the people inside of it. It all starts with a relationship with Jesus and relationships with others. This form of discipleship can be done with connection groups, outreach, and anything that helps strengthen our relationship with Jesus and others. The Hands compliment the head by being the action behind our knowledge of who Jesus is.

What does the Heart mean in our vision?

We believe in total depravity, which is Man’s natural condition apart from the grace given by God that redeems us. It is because the fall of Man, we are born into sin. Due to this being our natural state, we have a wounded heart at some level. When we accept Jesus into our hearts, we no longer are held captive by our sin, but our heart, although transformed, has been wounded from our past. The “Heart” part of our vision is all about restoring our hearts so we may guard our new heart and not let the wounds of our past creep back into our lives. This form of discipleship can be done through Restoration Groups at TGFC. These groups are a systematic approach to the sanctification God desires for our lives. When we can overcome our past wounds, our emotional and spiritual lives have a larger capacity to grow.

CORE VALUES 

We will be authentic. Healing only begins when we remove the masks.

We will live by example. You may be the only bible someone ever reads.

We will step out in faith and out of our comfort zone. God will grow us when we listen and obey.

We will be teachable and coachable. If you’re not swimming, you’re sinking. There is always room for growth.

We will help with excellence. Excellence honors God and inspires others.

We will do our part for the kingdom. We will go bankrupt if we consume more than we contribute.

We give from our heart. Time and money are better placed when you have a desire and not because you have to.

We will love God and people. Without these two, we don’t have anything.

We will make tough decisions when called. Sometimes we will have to hurt immediately in order not to harm permanently.

We will never shy away from the Truth. A lot has changed in 2000 years, but Jesus is not one of them.

We are stronger as a family. Jesus surrounded himself in community and we will follow his lead!

The Good Fight Church is governed by a voluntary Church Leadership Team (CLT). Leadership team members represent a diverse cross-section of the Oklahoma City community. They bring to the church a broad range of passion, skills, knowledge, and expertise.
