What Is Beyond These Walls?
After Jesus had risen from the dead and spent some weeks with his disciples, they asked him if it was finally the time when he would establish a heavenly kingdom on earth. Jesus told them it wasn’t really their concern. But he also told them what was: becoming his witnesses in their communities and throughout the world (Acts 1:6-9). Beyond These Walls is the way that we do exactly that. It’s not a campaign, it's who we are; it's in our DNA and our fabric as a church. Beyond These Walls initiatives have been the catalyst for visionary projects and ministry work over the past ten years.
Why Is This Important?
As Christians, we are often grieved at the injustices we see in a fallen world. But we are not called to hunker down in our churches and wait for Christ’s return. We are called to expand Christ’s kingdom in the way he enabled us to do it: by going out into our communities and world with the power of the Holy Spirit, and showing Christ’s love to the people we find there. That’s why Beyond These Walls matters so much - it enables The Bible Chapel to be an even greater witness for Christ in our communities and world.
