Identities

He are at Doxa, we believe that as Christians we are new creations and therefore we have a new identity in Christ.  These are not things we strive to become, but rather are part of our new nature in Christ.    We believe that there are four basic identites that sum up who we are in Christ. Here they are:

Learners:

We are to be disciples of Jesus Christ.  This simply means that we are followers of Jesus, and as such we take responsibility for our own development and the development of others.

Family:

In Christ we are made brothers and sisters.  As Christians we need to really learn what it means to love each other and treat each other as the family of God.

Missionaries:

Evey Christian is called to be a missionary.  Jesus gave everyone the mission of sharing the good news of Jesus Christ.  This is not a message for a chosen few to share, but rather for everyone to share.

Servants:

We are called to express the gospel not only verbally, but in tangible ways.  We are to look for what is broken, for that which is not the way God intended and we are to seek to bring restoration.
