Core Values

We embrace and act upon the following cherished values:

 

  • We value a transparent church community. (Acts 2:42, Prov. 27:17). Therefore, we will pursue love and unity while also welcoming newcomers. Ministry will be done according to giftedness and within teams.

 

  • We value lost people because Jesus died for them. (Acts 2:47) Therefore, we will invest our energy and resources in reaching those who do not have a relationship with Christ. We will encourage everyone in our church to invite the lost to enter into a relationship with Jesus Christ.

 

  • We value prayer as essential to our personal lives and church life. (Acts 2:42) Therefore, the ministries of this church will rely on both corporate and personal prayer.

 

  • We value Spirit-filled, biblical teaching as a primary catalyst for transforming lives. (Acts 2:42, 2 Timothy 3:16-17) Therefore, we will provide high-quality applicable teaching in our worship services, ministries, and small groups.

 

  • We value excellent worship as a primary response to the grace of God. (Acts 2:47, John 4:23-24, Col. 3:17). Therefore, we will gather regularly for corporate worship and will encourage each person to view every day as an act of worship to God.

 

  • We value a lifelong, full devotion to Christ (Luke 9:23-25). Therefore, we will encourage each follower of Christ (child, teen, and adult) to grow beyond nominal Christianity and pursue Him until their last breath on earth.

 

  • We value a compassionate and biblically grounded response to the complex issues of our world. (1 Cor. 9:19-23, Luke 5:33-39) Therefore, we will evaluate our ministries and worship in order to serve our generation and culture.

 

  • We value godly, servant leadership exercised with accountability and integrity. (Matt. 20:25-28, 1 Timothy 3) Therefore, those in leadership will be men and women of Christ-like character who are sensitive to the Spirit, accountable to others, and open to the evaluation of the body of Christ.

 

  • We value multi-generational ministry. (Deut. 6:7, Eph. 6:4) Therefore, we will place priority on families and pass on our faith to the next generations.
