OUR MEANING

The reason behind the name.

“God loves you. He has a plan for you and He’s bigger than any need.”

It’s a statement that closes out each Sunday gathering and it is built upon the foundation of three verses that we like to call the Four19 Journey.

1 John 4:19 - First we were loved, now we love. He loved us first.

Matthew 4:19 - “Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will send you out to fish for people.”

Philippians 4:19 - And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.

These verses are the reason behind our name and the framework that everything else we do is built upon. The Four19 journey a snapshot of the good news of Jesus Christ and empowers those who call Four19 home a way to share this message of hope in a real and memorable way. When people ask about our name we can point them to three pieces of scripture. These scriptures can be used to proclaim the message that through Jesus Christ they are loved, they have purpose and they can live at rest. It’s more than an odd name with random numbers, it’s a tool that helps us in our mission to help people meet and follow Jesus.
