Depth and DistanceVision 2025

2024 and BeforeIn the fall of 2013, Lawrence and Shannon met with seven families in their home and presented the vision God had given them regarding a future church to be called Harvest Point Fellowship Church.Foundational Scripture: Matthew 9:37-38 when He said, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.” We envisioned a church that would prepare workers for the harvest, a place where lives are transformed, and spiritual growth is a regular occurrence. Harvest Point Fellowship Church was launched on February 9, 2014, with approximately 300 people in attendance.

2024 and BeforeIn September 2022, Pastor Scott was invited to replace Pastor August as Senior pastor of the Church at Bethel’s family once Pastor August retires. Committed to the work at Harvest Point Fellowship Church, Pastor Scott cast a vision where these two autonomous churches could work together to reach the city via the One Church Model. These two churches would be “One Church” at two campuses. With this model, we would remain unified in vision, mission, and values while gathering in two locations as we look ahead to planting other One Church campuses. With this shared vision, the local church body’s demographics and the immediate community’s needs will allow for worship and programming distinctions. Within this model, we would adopt a new name that starts with “One Church @...”. We have since made some adjustments to this model.

2025 ForwardWhat does it mean to “Go Deep”?“Go Deep” describes our desire to embody the spirit of Acts 1:8 in a modern context.

Vision 2025Go Deep: Depth and Distance“Go Deep” is a phrase used to describe our desire to live out a modern picture of Acts 1:8.Acts 1:8 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.”Two Words that Describe our effort to Go Deep: Depth and Distance.Depth has to do with a strengthened foundation that will allow us to efficiently go the distance as witnesses of the Lord.
