What does Epikos mean?

Epikos is the greek word for epic

Epic means:
(Adj.)

1. noting or pertaining to a long poetic composition, usually centered upon a hero, in which a series of great achievements or events is narrated in elevated style;
2. resembling or suggesting such poetry;
3. heroic; majestic; impressively great;
4. of unusually great size or extent.

There are a few reasons why this name is fitting for what we are trusting God for through our church plant. The primary reason is that an epic is based on a central character or hero…JESUS! The second reason is that an epic is a longer poetic composition. Everyone’s walk with Christ truly is poetry (“For we are God's masterpiece.” Eph 2:10 NLT). It’s our hope and prayer that God will be the composer of this transformational community. The final fitting reason is that “epic” is often used to reference something significant or big. We pray that Milwaukee will be impacted in a HUGE way. We’re trusting God to do something big in us and through us.
