JBBF will be a body of believers:
Where God’s Word is exalted in authority, studied with expectation, taught with relevance, heard with anticipation, and obeyed with passion; where the preaching is encouraging, positive, and practical.
Where God is worshiped joyfully and reverently; where worship is a significant event which encourages believers and transforms them into the triumphant army of God.
Where the gospel is the underlying theme; where grace is accepted and extended; where the salvation of souls is the norm, not the exception; where love for people springs from love for God.
Where prayer is the undergirding and consuming standard for all we do and for every initiative we take.
Where where marriages are healed and parents’ hearts are turned toward their children.
Where people are free to attempt great things for God.
Where children and youth are nurtured in the faith; where they are made strong in their ability to serve the Lord and stand for him in their world.
Where the issues of our culture are seriously addressed; where God’s people take stands in the community that are courageous and compassionate.
