The “Greater Charleston Assembly” Vision Casting

The vision and purpose of the GCA is to become a catalyst for Christians to begin functioning as a unit (members of Christ body) and not independently of one another.  This passage in Matthew 18:15-17 was established by Christ so that there would be accountability among fellow believers in the body of Christ. Without integrity, transparency and accountability, unity would be impossible in any city.

Our Vision: Establishing A Unified Kingdom of God

According to Christ, His kingdom is not of this world. “Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence” (John 18:36). That said, if we are to witness “unity” in our city among Christians, it must be established upon Christ and the gospel alone. “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness” 2 Timothy 3:16.

Our Mission: The Greater Charleston Assembly seeks to usher unity into the Tri-County area by following God’s Word.

The final authority for the believer in Christ is God’s Word, not secular government. We obey 
government when it’s not repugnant to our faith. According to Acts 2:40-44 “And with many other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, Be saved from this perverse generation. Then those who gladly received his word were baptized; and that day about three thousand souls were added to them. And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers. Then fear came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles. Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common.”

Theme: Connecting The Body of Christ Bringing Unity to Our City

Connecting the body of Christ in our city as the GCA will be done through relationships. The 
kingdom of God is relational. We will gather tri-annually for the purpose of worship, fellowship, communion, evangelism, and mission strategies. Believers in our city should be living according to Ephesians 4:1-6 “Endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; One Lord, one faith, one
baptism, One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.”

*Government   *Communities        *Churches       *Families       *Businesses

The pillars of a civil functioning community are comprised of Government, Churches, Families, and Business upholding the principles of integrity. Although we understand that Christians are just one of many spiritual and religious groups in our city, we stand on the covenant that God made with Abraham in Genesis chapter 12:3 “…all the families of the earth will be blessed through you.” Christ is 42 generations in the lineage of Abraham, and He’s God’s ultimate standard for the world. As Christ followers, we seek to obey His command listed in the following passage: “That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may 
believe that thou hast sent me” (John 17:21). A body is the connection of its parts. The GCA is the church in Charleston likened to the church in Rome, Corinth, Galathia, Ephesus, Philippi, Colossae, Thessalonica, and to the churches of Asia Minor in Revelation chapters 2-3.
