Vision and Purpose
Ridgeway Baptist Church’s vision is to be a church…
- responding to: Memphis
- responding to: The World.
We exist for the purpose of:
- responding to the Lord with worship,
- responding to life with His Word, and
- responding to the lost as His witnesses.
Core Values:
CHRIST-LIKE: in character
We will emphasize and aspire the Christ-life in us by the filling of the Holy Spirit, while realizing that all we carry out and consider should be controlled by His presence and conform to His person.
COMMITTED: to the authority and application of Holy Scripture
Our identity and practices will always be tethered to the truth.
CONNECTED: relationally, globally, locally, denominationally
We will design and use processes that connect us with people who need God and people who can help us reach those who need God. By conviction and cooperation we remain Southern Baptists.
CLEAR: in mission and message
Our communication of who we are, what we believe, and what we are doing will be clear.
