We believe in going the 2nd milefor the people of Clarksville to reach them for Christ and teach them to follow Christ.
–Matthew 5:41 and Matthew 28:19-20
Did you know that 86% of Clarksville is unchurched? Without a church home? Possibly without Jesus in their lives? Possibly without heaven in their future? Would you like to change these numbers?
2nd Mile has a heart for Clarksville and a soul for Jesus. We want to serve our community and let His light shine through us to reach others with His love.
To make great disciples, reaching others is not enough: we must also teach others to follow Christ. 2nd Milers delve deeply into the scriptures and passionately seek the Holy Spirit.
Nothing in this world can give you purpose, peace, and joy more than knowing Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and having a personal relationship with Him. Even if you have doubts about whether this may be true, isn’t just the possibility of a richer life with a deeper purpose worth exploring?
