WHAT WE VALUE
-
LIGHT THE WORLD
We will be a people who light the world with the love of Jesus. Jesus instructed us to let our light shine before all men (Matt. 5:16). God’s heart is to reach the lost. He makes us passionate about preaching the gospel and doing ministry in a way that engages people outside of the Christian faith, so they may glorify God
-
DISCIPLES MAKE DISCIPLES
We will be a people who see Jesus and actively help others know how to follow Jesus. A disciple helps make other disciples through encouragement, studying the Word, and Jesus’ teaching of spiritual formation.
-
UNITY
We will be a multi-cultural people who in love for one another will forgo our comforts and preferences and strive for the unity of people in the church to the glory of God.
JOY
We will be a people who choose joy in all situations. And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit (Acts 13:52).
-
FAITH
We will be a people with Big Faith. Jesus said, “Faith as a mustard seed, can move a mountain.” We read it is also impossible to please God without faith. Let’s trust HIm and start moving mountains.
Read Matthew 17:20
Read Hebrews 11:6
-
FREEDOM
We will be a people no longer bound by sin. When we bow our knee to Jesus He becomes our Lord, and sets us free from any other rule over our lives. He who is free is free indeed
-
FAMILY
We will be a people who walk God’s calling to a spiritual family; therefore, we embrace community, reject the idea of disposable relationships, and choose to walk in love, respect, and unity. We will refuse to sacrifice our marriages and our children on the altars of temporal success or fleeting pleasures. (Psalm 127:1, 3)
