PHILOSOPHY
of MINISTRY
​
​
Why do we do what we do at NBC?
"We do what we do, because we want what we want"
And our ultimate desire at NBC is to align our Biblical beliefs with our actions. We want each decision, practice, and ministry endeavor to be supported by Biblical truth. This is what we mean by the term, "Ministry Philosophy". Rather than hiding or backgrounding our stances on theological, philosophical, or practical issues, our goal is to clearly communicate what we believe, which is the reasoning behind what we do.​
Below is a list of resources regarding the ministry philosophy of NBC. We hope it's beneficial for you as you are discovering who we are and where we stand.
