In this message, we introduce and explain Wildwood Church’s new mission statement:

Magnify Christ. Multiply Disciples. Wherever we go.

Rooted in the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18–20), this sermon clarifies how Scripture shapes the mission of the Church and the role every believer plays in Christ’s work. We explore Christ’s authority, the advance of the gospel through ordinary faithfulness, and what it looks like to live on mission—locally and globally—under the lordship of Jesus.

You’ll hear:

Why the glory of Christ among all peoples is our driving vision

How the Great Commission applies to every believer

What it means to magnify Christ through loving obedience

How disciples are multiplied as God gives the growth

Why “wherever we go” captures a life of readiness and faithfulness

This message lays the biblical foundation for who we are, why we exist, and how we intend to live as a church in the Quad Cities and among the nations.

In this message, we declare the vision of Wildwood Church: the glory of Christ among all peoples. From Old Testament to New, Scripture reveals that God’s driving purpose in history is to make His glory known through His Son to every nation. This sermon invites our church family to unite around a vision that has compelled God’s people for millennia and will culminate in the worship of Christ by all peoples.
