WHAT WE VALUE
-
EVANGELISM
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.
-
DISCIPLEship
We will be a people who see Jesus and actively help others know how to follow Jesus. Because we are called to make disciples, our primary focus is ministering to people, not conducting meetings, facilitating programs, or building buildings. (Matthew 28:19-20).
-
LORDSHIP
We will be a people who joyful obey Jesus. Because Jesus is “King of kings and Lord of lords,” we believe that wholehearted submission to God’s will and His Word is the starting point of the Christian faith and the foundation of all spiritual growth. (Colossians 2:6).
LEADERSHIP
We will be a people who develop future leaders who will serve in the church and in the community. We do this by deliberately creating opportunities for young potential leaders to develop their gifts, and empowering them through identification, instruction, impartation, and internship. (2 Timothy 2:2)
-
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)
