Our Heart For Rusk
Our love for Rusk is rooted in our love for Jesus Christ. He is the reason we serve, the hope we proclaim, and the foundation of everything we do. As a church, we believe that when hearts are anchored in Christ, lives are transformed—and out of those transformed lives come stronger families, healthier relationships, and a more united community. The Gospel is not just a message we preach; it’s a life we’re called to live. And we want to live that life openly and humbly right here in Rusk, Texas.
We believe Jesus calls us to love our neighbors as ourselves—not just in word, but in action. Our mission is to reflect His compassion by meeting needs, offering grace, and building genuine relationships across every part of our community. Whether we’re encouraging and praying for endurance of the weary, walking with the broken, or celebrating with those who rejoice, we want the people of Rusk to know that Christ sees them, values them, and has a purpose for them. Our passion for this town flows from the heart of God, who desires that every person come to know His love and peace.
Christ shows us that real community begins with humility and sacrificial love. As we fix our eyes on Him, He teaches us how to be better listeners, better servants, and better neighbors. It’s through this Christ-centered lens that we seek to engage Rusk—not with a desire to be seen, but to serve; not to build our name, but to lift up His. We believe the more deeply we abide in Jesus, the more faithfully we can walk alongside our city—with gentleness, with courage, and with unwavering hope.
Our earnest and prayerful hope is to see a revival of faith and love in Rusk—a revival that begins in the church and overflows into every street, school, home, and heart. We want to partner with others in our community who share this vision, knowing that together, and through Christ, we can sow seeds of lasting change. In all we do, may Rusk not see just us—but Christ in us, the hope of glory.
