Faith Community Bible Church desires heart–level interaction with missions opportunities worldwide.
Our goal is to be a body of world-impacting followers of Christ who are partnering with our brothers and sisters here in Boise, Idaho and around the world to produce ever-multiplying churches all around our city, this country, and to the ends of the earth.
As we take a look at the current status of this task we see that all people are equally lost without Jesus, but all people do not have equal access to the message of saving faith through Jesus. We desire to strategically bring gospel access to these least reached peoples. Many missions opportunities exist so our church has developed a set of core values which assists us in both determining what ministries to be involved with and where to focus our energies within those ministries.
Evangelistic Opportunity
FCBC has a strong desire to be involved in ministries that prioritize evangelism in ways that focus on pushing the gospel into places where the greatest need exists.
Relational Partnership
Building and strengthening the relationships between the families and churches we support is an extremely high priority for FCBC. Our hearts will only be moved to pray for and give to the ministries if we are relationally to our front line workers.
Church Planting
We believe the most effective way to spread the gospel is by the establishment of local churches led by indigenous peoples. The established local church is the best means to establish “hubs” of lifestyle evangelism for the advancement of God’s kingdom.
National Leadership Training
Leadership training is an essential component of healthy church planting. We feel that investing resources into biblically qualified leaders is wise because of the trickle down effect this will inevitably produce. Healthy leaders produce healthy churches.
Spiritual Stimulation at FCBC
We know that involvement in missions will produce fruit in our local church. It is our experience that our involvement in missions will draw us closer to the heart of Jesus. It is a high priority to structure our missions in such a way as to not neglect this principle.
