Founding values
Seek and Know
To intentionally seek God, both privately and corporately, that we may know Him and His manifest presence continually.
Jeremiah 29:13-14 / Matthew 6:33 / Psalm 84:10
Worship
The act of glorifying and praising God, for His benefit, calls us higher and motivates us to the Christian life. It is here we meet Him, listen and know his voice as he refreshes and instructs us.
Psalm 148:6 / Revelation 1:10 / John 4:24
Priesthood of all believers
We value the priesthood of all believers and celebrate the contribution of the saints to minister to one another with the intent of spiritual growth and maturity.
1 Pet 2:9 / 1 Corinthians 12:7 / Luke 9:1-2
Leadership in Community
The role of leadership exists to aid the body’s growth and maturity. As such the five-fold ministry gifts are held in esteem as the collaborative effort of Gods people to grow His church.
Ephesians 4:11 / 1 Corinthians 12:28
Children
We value the discipleship and inclusion of children in church, with the intent of establishing foundational biblical values that aid in the knowledge of God and his Kingdom.
Matthew 18:3 / Matthew 19:14 / Proverbs 22:6
Discipleship
The formation of communities that aid the growth of faith through interpersonal and group relationships. Such discipleship is others-centric in encouraging the releasing of saints to works of service in and beyond the church.
Ephesians 2:10 / John 8:31 / Hebrews 10:24-25
The Word of God
Scripture teaches, guides and serves as a foundation of Gods truth. As we read it personally and publicly with aid of the Holy Spirit, we know God more fully as He shapes our lives.
2 Timothy 3:16 / Joshua 1:8 / Psalm 1:2
