At MBT we summarize the purpose of our church

with three statements...

To Magnify Christ

To Minister in our Community

To Commit to World Missions

​

Jesus clearly explains this purpose in the “Great Commandments and the Great Commission” 
The Great Commandments: 
…Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.”
Matt. 22:36-40 

The Great Commission:
“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” 
Matt. 28:19-20
