Spring Meadows Church of Christ
A PLACE FOR YOU - A PLACE OF VISION
Chances are you’re fairly new to Spring Hill. It seems the For Sale sign is the city flower and the moving van is our unofficial mascot. What a great community: friendly people and so many children. Drive down most any street in the evening here in town and see the children out riding their bikes or playing ball. I hope as the city grows we can keep the small town values that make it special. So you’re new to Spring Hill and no doubt you’ve seen the many churches springing up all over. Have you found a church home?
Have we got a church for you! What is the Spring Meadows church all about? In a community where it seems a new church sign pops up every week, why Spring Meadows Church of Christ?
Perhaps you have seen our new temporary building or our “family” sign as you’ve driven down Highway 31. Perhaps you have been invited by someone to visit the Spring Meadows Church of Christ. Many people are a little apprehensive about visiting a new church. We hope a few words of introduction about this warm, friendly, diverse, growing congregation will set your mind at ease about visiting with us. We call Spring Meadows “A Place of Vision”…
Bible Centered Vision
Our aim is to be the church that Jesus established in the first century. Therefore, we rely only on the Scriptures for authority in all that we teach and practice, and we reject all creeds and doctrines that originate from man. God revealed His Will for mankind in the Bible. We are striving to please God by doing Bible things in Bible ways and calling Bible things by Bible names. In all of our sermons, Bible class lessons and home Bible studies, we seek simply to “speak as the oracles of God” (1 Peter 4:11).
Our Mission Minded Vision
Our aim is to present the gospel of Jesus Christ to the many people in the Spring Hill area, Tennessee and other parts of the world. Jesus told His disciples, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature” (Mark 16:15). We take that command seriously and are involved in various mission efforts both through gifts and through actual mission trips.
Our Family Oriented Vision
Our aim is to meet the spiritual and physical needs of this congregation and the community. This with an emphasis on the family. In today’s society, the home and family seem to be under constant attack. You’ll notice our logo depicts a family. We are blessed with many young families that support each other. We place special emphasis on the family, recognizing and being thankful for the unique roles God gave to each of us as husbands, wives, fathers, mothers and children – and don’t forget the grand, grandparents (Ephesians 5:22-6:4).
Our Vision for Singles
While we have many young families we also are blessed with some outstanding spiritually-minded folks who are single. You may not have a family at home, but you’ll find this a place where you’ll feel at home. Here you’ll find a larger Family in your Family of faith, a place where you can meet and interact with others.
Our God Centered Vision in Worship
We come together each Sunday to worship our loving God. In our worship, we simply try to worship like the church did in the first century, “in spirit and in truth” (John 4:24). Every week, we sing as a congregation, we pray, we listen to the Word of God being proclaimed, we give as we have been prospered, and we observe the Lord’s Supper. Knowing that God is the object of our worship, we seek to do and say only those things that will bring honor and glory to His name, for of such He is so worthy (Rev. 4:11).
Our Vision of Bible Study
Children’s Bible Classes: The church of Christ places a great emphasis on its Bible school program. We recognize the God-given responsibility that parents have to “train up a child in the way he should go” (Prov. 22:6), and we have designed our children’s Bible classes to assist parents in that awesome task. We have classes for children from the
moment that they can sit up to the time that they graduate from high school, all taught by trained, knowledgeable, loving adults who are concerned for the spiritual growth of their students.
Adult Bible Classes
In addition to having classes for children of all ages, we have regular Bible classes for all adults as well. Our adult Bible classes teach a variety of subjects stressing the application of Scriptures in our everyday lives. In addition to a study of the Bible, topics of interest for families and parents, are addressed as a part of the curriculum. Sometimes we schedule workshops to address specific topics that need special attention. We have a Bible class on Thursday morning for Ladies. Our classes are taught by individuals who have a true respect for the authority of God’s Word and seek to convey that respect to those in the class.
A Place of Vision
We have Bible classes for all ages on Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights. Our worship services on Sundays are very simple and uplifting as we strive to “worship Him in spirit and in truth” (John 4:24). We meet at 9am and 5pm on Sunday for worship and have Bible study classes at 10am on Sunday and 7pm on Wednesdays.
We want to have a vision for the past as we have a high view of the inspiration of God’s Word and Way. We want to be a different kind of church taking seriously Jesus desires for actions and attitudes.
We want to have a vision for the present as we strive to minister to our community and reach out in with God’s love. We value our relationships: with God, with each other and with our community.
We want to have a vision for the future as we strive to live faithful to God’s Word on our way to Heaven. So, we believe the Bible and take its commands and examples seriously.
We’d love to have you visit us.
