Missions is anything that we do that helps us take the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ to the lost.

The strategy has been given to us by our Savior in Acts 1:8:

"But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come on you, and you will be My witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."

Jerusalem is anything we do to take the Gospel to our city and county.

We are involved in and partnered with ministries that help us accomplish our Jerusalem missions:

• Members of 3BC using their Platforms throughout our city/county each day
• Food Pantry (on-site at 3BC)
• S4 Project (supporting Mitchell Nielson Primary and Elementary Schools)
• Fellowship of Christian Athletes
• Pregnancy Support Center
• The Journey Home
• 180 Degrees Ministries
• Rutherford County Jail Ministry
• Various other ministries and projects

Judea is anything we do to take the Gospel to our nation:

We are currently partnered with Christ City Church and its Pastor Jonathan McIntosh in Memphis, a new church plant which is focused on reaching Midtown Memphis. Over the next few years we will work to see Christ City Church grow and thrive as they take the Gospel to Midtown Memphis.

Samaria is anything we do to take the Gospel to North America:

We are currently working in St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada with church planters Steve Grissom and Adam Dorsey to see churches planted in that city. We average 2-3 trips yearly to St. John's for ministry opportunities.

Ends of the earth is anything we do to take the Gospel beyond the borders of North America:

We are currently working with John & Elizabeth Kea who are members of 3BC serving in Namur, Belgium. Namur is the capital of the French-speaking region of Belgium. We average 2-3 trips yearly to Namur for ministry opportunities.

3BC encourages members to not only pray for the lost but to GO to the lost and share the Gospel. Whether it's your neighborhood, your school, your office or Memphis, St. John's, or Namur, members of 3BC should always be on mission with Jesus! Talk with one of the Pastors about how you can be on mission!

The World Missions Offering (WMO) is one way we give to support missions. The WMO is meant to be above your tithes and is meant to be given to year-round, not just at special times of the year. A portion of the WMO goes to the International Mission Board to help support missions work to the ends of the earth. A portion of the WMO goes to the North American Missions Board to help support missions work in our Samaria. A portion of the WMO goes to the Tennessee Baptist Convention to help support missions in our state (Children's Homes, Adult Children's Homes, evangelism projects, etc.). A portion of the WMO helps 3BC do missions.
