Our Core Values define our fundamental beliefs and therefore dictate our words and behavior. They are not options; but non-negotiable principles that will guide our decisions and be used to determine if we are on the right path in fulfilling our God-given mission.

 

  • The Lordship of Jesus – We acknowledge the Lordship of Christ and commit ourselves only to His purposes and will.
  • Holy Spirit – We must have the presence and power of God’s Holy Spirit to teach, gift, empower, and guide us in doing the continuing work of Jesus.
  • The Bible – The Bible is God’s completely true and saving Word. We will faithfully use it to bring the lost to Christ and believers to maturity in Him.
  • Authentic Worship – Our worship will be Christ-centered, authentic, and generationally relevant.
  • Prayer – We must personally and corporately pray because God hears and answers; and God commands that we pray.
  • Evangelism & Discipleship – God wants every person to be saved. Therefore, we will use every available Christ-honoring means to pursue, win, and disciple them.
  • Servant Ministry – With a servant’s heart we join Christ in loving and helping those who are hungry, sick, and hurting.
  • Missions – We will join with others throughout the world in doing Jesus’ work among men.
  • Love- God loves every person. Jesus commands that we love God and other people. Therefore, we commit ourselves to love God, each other, and those outside our church.
