What is Fix on about ?

These are Fix's aims and objectives and the things we love to do. It's not as lyrical and pretty as the stream of consciousness below but I'd like to think that it's nailing down some of those thoughts into concrete realities. It's (as my Eastern bloc grandfather used to delight in doing to his backyard) concretizing them...

Fix – Convicted by Christ, Compelled by Christ. We seek to follow Christ’s example by:
1) Knowing and Loving God better through His Word – the Bible
2) Living holy lives pleasing to God
3) Proclaiming God’s saving message to Sydney City and the world
4) Loving and Serving each other

1) We are a gathering of people who want to fix our eyes, thoughts, hearts and lives on Jesus through the Bible. (Hebrews 3:1; 12:3)
2) We have been fixed (forgiven, not perfected) and we want to please God with our lives and use them to point others to Him. (1 Cor 6:11; 1 Pet 2:12; 3:1)
3) We’re part of God’s mission to fix this broken world by preaching the gospel of Jesus to everyone. (2 Cor 5:19)
4) We’re a place where you can get your fix for the week: not some loser pill-popping, consumeristic, self-focused entertainment hit but a taste of the loving, serving, self-sacrificial life of the kingdom of God. (1 Pet 2:9; Heb 10:24-25)
