Our Mission

OBBC exists to make disciples of Christ who connect to God, Others, Ministry, and the Lost. 

A disciple who is connected to:

God: loves and glorifies God through Christ

Matthew 22:37 (ESV) 
And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.

1 Corinthians 15:3-4 (ESV) 
For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures

Others: lives in biblical community

Matthew 22:39 (ESV) 
And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

Philippians 2:4 (ESV) 
Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others

Ministry: serves the Church

1 Peter 4:10 (ESV)
As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace: 

Galatians 6:10 (ESV)
So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.

The Lost: makes disciples

Matthew 28:18-20 (ESV)
And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

Acts 1:8 (ESV) 
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
