A teaching ministry that seeks to help people heal past hurts, grow in Christ, and impact their community.
Help people heal past hurts.
As we are born into a world of hurt, pain, and sin, many of us experience devastating trauma early on. Often, those who hurt us were hurting and had not properly addressed their pain, hurting us in the process. Then we grow up with those memories and scars, allowing them to shape our lives negatively. They impact who we are, how we love, and our ability to live in freedom and peace.
As a ministry, we are called to walk alongside those hurting to help them find healing, wholeness, and peace through Christ. It is only then that they have the possibility to live the abundant life Jesus came to bring (John 10:10).
Grow in Christ.
When Jesus spoke to His eleven disciples in Matthew 28:18-20, he provided a commission. He told them to “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…” Since this time, many have considered this as Jesus’ Great Commission. A commission that extends far beyond the eleven disciples to you and me today.
When translated in its original language, the word for teach means to become a pupil, to disciple, enroll as a scholar: instruct, teach. At Village Hills Fellowship, we’re focused on fulfilling the Great Commission in San Antonio, across Texas, throughout the United States, and worldwide.
Since our founding, we’ve been mandated to serve as a teaching and equipping ministry. We want to help and empower disciples to live faithful lives unto God. We’ll do this by structuring our church ministry to emphasize teaching, training, and instruction so that we might walk faithfully with those Jesus calls us to serve and minister to.
Impact Their Community.
People who are free from past hurts and grow in Christ are ready, able, and willing to serve Christ in and through the mission and gifts He gives them. As a teaching ministry, we strive to equip and help disciples fulfill their calling so they can be faithful ministers to God no matter where He calls them or what He calls them to do; so they might hear the wonderful words from Jesus: “Well done thy good and faithful servant” (Matthew 5:21).
