Why Vertical?

We believe that the biblical purpose for church is for God’s people to experience and express the glory of God. To get "Vertical" is a distinctive that matters, and it matters a lot. In many churches around the world people have hijacked the mission of the church and redefined it as merely an evangelistic and/or a socialistic enterprise. That’s simply not enough. But when a church truly embraces and pursues God’s glory as the central passion, everything else falls into place. God comes down! Evangelism and meeting the needs of society happen naturally as a by-product.

Harvest Bible Chapel is for people who want to give themselves in pursuit of God’s manifest presence. It's what we are made for, and it's why we are Vertical.
