Vision & Values

VISION STATEMENT

We, as a group, submit ourselves wholly to Christ for use in His service to:

   •  Reach the lost for Him

   •  Educate and train believers for spiritual growth

   •  Develop relationships in and outside the church

   •  Give back to God with our voices, time, and money

   •  Display the image of Christ to the world through our service to others.

CORE VALUES

  1. We believe that every person, Christian and non-Christian alike, is valuable to God and to His kingdom
    Because people are eternally valuable to God, they are valuable to us as well. Responsible evangelism will always be our cause, and ongoing discipleship will always be the core of the ministry.
    (Matt. 18:14; Matt25:45; 2 Pet 3:9)
  2. We believe that doing church as a team is God’s design for effective ministry
    Spirit empowered service with the willing-hearted involvement of every person is vital to God’s plan being accomplished.
    (Ps. 133:1; Ecc. 4:9-12; Eph. 4:11-16; 1 Pet. 2:4-9)
  3. We believe that a simple presentation of Jesus Christ in creative ways will impact and transform lives.
    Relating to our culture through redeeming the arts while remaining true to the Scripture is a balance we will always keep. This allows us to present the gospel in such a way that reaches the heart
    (Acts 17:22-24; 1 Cor. 9:22-23)
  4. We believe every member should commit to a lifestyle of consistent spiritual growth with honest accountability.
    A genuine love for God is always a first priority. Every Christ should yearn for continual spiritual growth. Therefore, discipleship through small groups, accountability and open honesty are critical to maturing in our faith.
    (Prov. 27:17; Mark 12:31; Acts 2:44-47; 1 Tim 4:7-8; 1 Pet. 2:2)
  5. We believe that every member is a minister who has been given gifts to be discovered, developed, and deployed
    We are a gift-based, volunteer-driven church. Each believer will find his greatest joy and fulfillment when serving in his gifts and passion. Every believer is created for ministry, gifted for ministry, authorized for ministry and needed for ministry
    (Mark 10:45; Rom. 12; 1 Cor 12:14-20; Eph. 2:10)
  6. We believe that God is worthy of our very best. Therefore, a growing spirit of excellence should permeate every activity.
    Not perfection but excellence with consistent evaluation and a willingness to improve for the sake of the kingdom of God are distinctive of growing ministries.
    (Ps 78:72; Eccl. 10:10; Dan. 5:12; Col 3:17)
  7. We believe that genuine love and caring relationships are key to the life of every endeavor.
    Refusing to give audience to a spirit of complaining, we will instead be courageous in solving every problem in a way that honors God and builds biblical character. We value healthy relationships and protect the unity of the Spirit in our church.
    (Rom 16:17; 1 Cor. 13:8; Eph. 4:3; Jas 1:2-3; 1 Pet 5:8-9)
  8. We believe that the most effective evangelism happens through people inviting people.
    We believe that a life will reach a life. Each believer develops genuine relationships with friends and family and extends an invitation to them. Evangelism gets to be a normal, natural lifestyle of winning other to Christ, one by one.
    (Prov. 11:30; John 1:43-45, 4:28-30)
  9. We believe in identifying and training emerging leaders who are fully committed to Christ and who will reach their generation with the gospel.
    God is raising up men and women who will take the baton of godly character, authentic faith and servant hearted leadership into the next generation
    (Ps. 78:6-7; 1 Tim 3:1; 2 Tim. 2:2; Titus 1:5-9)
