Worth It Initiative

As it became apparent that the 20/20 Vision would be fulfilled, our elders began asking the Lord what He had for Redeemer in the next season. In this two-year initiative, we saw God stretch and strengthen our church as we considered what it means to consider that Jesus really is Worth It.

Reaching 1% of Lubbock

In early 2023, our elders began asking the Lord what might be ahead and He laid a vision for deep discipleship and wide reach on our hearts. As the city of Lubbock grows and expands, we are committed to reaching 1% of the Lubbock population with the Gospel through a multisite strategy.
