Every organization that endures over time is based on a deeply shared combination of purpose, belief, and values. So it is with the Church of the Nazarene. It was founded to transform the world by spreading scriptural holiness (Christ-like living). It is both a Great Commission church and a Holiness church at the same time. Our mission is to make Christ-like disciples of all nations.
Each local congregation of the Church of the Nazarene is a faith community, ready to greet you in Jesus’ name. There you will discover opportunities not only to encounter Jesus as your Savior and Lord, but to grow as a follower of Christ. Local churches offer ministry opportunities for serving others. Fellowship, worship, training and education are all part of our life together in Christ. With 68 congregations and several multi-site campuses all over central and southeast Ohio, our vision and mission embraces the entire world. We invite you to experience the unique fellowship of your nearby Church of the Nazarene.

Commentary
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
The biblical message of Christian holiness is timeless in necessity and radically relevant in today’s world. The plenary inspiration of the Scriptures not only allows the reader to ‘hear in their heart’ what God has said to others in the past, but also what God is saying to them today for current direction and inspiration. As Nazarenes, we are conservative evangelicals and are rooted in the holiness movement.
Victorious Christian living IS POSSIBLE in the HERE and NOW. We would encourage YOU to experience God’s saving, sanctifying grace in your own heart and life throughout this year.
Pastor Trevor Johnston
