Impact Church of South Florida’s vision is

Then the LORD answered me and said: "Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. (Habakkuk 2:2-3 NKJV)

How You Can Run with the Vision in 2019 “If people can’t see what God is doing, they stumble all over themselves; But when they attend to what he reveals, they are most blessed.” Proverbs 29:18 MSG

What to Focus on for 2019 (Member Responsibilities) Be a wholehearted Impact Church believer. “‘Of all those I rescued from Egypt, no one who is twenty years old or older will ever see the land I swore to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, for they have not obeyed me wholeheartedly. The only exceptions are Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite and Joshua son of Nun, for they have wholeheartedly followed the Lord.’” Numbers 32:11-12 NLT

What to Focus on for 2019 (Member Responsibilities) Take it personal, be a soul-winner! “Even though I am free of the demands and expectations of everyone, I have voluntarily become a servant to any and all in order to reach a wide range of people: religious, nonreligious, meticulous moralists, loose-living immoralists, the defeated, the demoralized—whoever. I didn’t take on their way of life. I kept my bearings in Christ—but I entered their world and tried to experience things from their point of view. I’ve become just about every sort of servant there is in my attempts to lead those I meet into a God-saved life. I did all this because of the Message. I didn’t just want to talk about it; I wanted to be in on it!” 1 Corinthians 9:19-23 MSG The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, And he who wins souls is wise. (Proverbs 11:30 NKJV)

What to Focus on for 2019 (Member Responsibilities) Don’t go to church, be the Church & do life together. “I’m praying not only for them But also for those who will believe in me Because of them and their witness about me. The goal is for all of them to become one heart and mind— Just as you, Father, are in me and I in you, So they might be one heart and mind with us. Then the world might believe that you, in fact, sent me. The same glory you gave me, I gave them, So they’ll be as unified and together as we are— I in them and you in me. Then they’ll be mature in this oneness, And give the godless world evidence That you’ve sent me and loved them In the same way you’ve loved me.” John 17:20-23 MSG “Confess to one another therefore your faults (your slips, your false steps, your offenses, your sins) and pray [also] for one another, that you may be healed and restored [to a spiritual tone of mind and heart]…” James 5:16a AMPC

What to Focus on for 2019 (Member Responsibilities) Excel in the grace of giving. But since you excel in everything—in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in complete earnestness and in the love we have kindled in you —see that you also excel in this grace of giving.

What to Focus on for 2019 (Member Responsibilities) Increase the value of your service. “Instead, we will speak the truth in love, growing in every way more and more like Christ, who is the head of his body, the church. He makes the whole body fit together perfectly. As each part does its own special work, it helps the other parts grow, so that the whole body is healthy and growing and full of love.” Ephesians 4:15-16 NLT

Specific Vision Focuses for 2019 To see a minimum of 1,000 lives committing/recommitting to Christ. To make greater impact & influence in the community through outreaches, mentoring, small groups, and our services. To create a strong media & social media presence. Prepare to reach out again through Arts & Entertainment. To take further steps in the establishment of our permanent campus. To lay the foundation for new Impact Campuses. Create greater financial margin.

Never forget your “Y” • WHY ARE YOU LIVING NOW? • WHY ARE YOU AT IMPACT CHURCH? • WHY DO WE GATHER TOGETHER? • WHY DO YOU CONNECT IN SMALL GROUPS? • WHY DO YOU GO THROUGH THE GROWTH TRACK? • WHY DO WE PRAY & STUDY OUR BIBLES? • WHY DO YOU SERVE? • WHY DO YOU GIVE? • WHY DO WE TOUCH THE COMMUNITY?

Here’s your “Y” We do what we do ultimately to please God, but also to partner with Him to help people to get to KNOW GOD, FIND FREEDOM, DISCOVER PURPOSE and MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

Expect a constant wind of life blowing at your back that propels you to run with the vision. “The Spirit of God has made me, And the breath of the Almighty gives me life.” (Job 33:4 NKJV)
