NCS, of course, has a formal, articulated Mission Statement like many companies and organizations.
NCS is a network of men joined by a common desire for a deep and abiding friendship with Jesus, and lasting and transparent friendships with each other.
This is a huge challenge. But in truth, fulfilling that Mission is happening every day, in small ways and in large, throughout the network of NCS chapters, in lives of men who have committed themselves to friendship with each other and friendship with Jesus.
The notion of “friendship with Jesus” may seem an alien idea to some. But we know it is otherwise. The New Testament accounts tell us that Jesus ate with “publicans and sinners” and this was the basis for the smear campaign that he was a “friend of sinners.” What those slanderers failed to see was that they, just as we, are all sinners needing a friend like Him.
