Strategic directions 4. Following Jesus We must open the gateway to the lives of this generation of Tasmanians. If we are serious about this we will see significant change in our style and models of being church. People need to be helped to discover the saving significance of the story of Jesus &endash; how his birth, life, teaching, death and resurrection bring about freedom from sin and enter into new life in the Spirit. Introducing all Tasmanians to Jesus Christ in the Bible and in the life of our community should be our primary priority. Opening the Bible in life transforming ways will release a revolution in our lives, our congregations, schools and agencies throughout Tasmania. The prayerful and faithful life of our communities following Jesus will enable the Holy Spirit to bring other people to follow Jesus. transformingLIFE means a commitment to following Jesus. <<   ||   >>
