Core Values
Christ-Centered Worship
We value worship as a whole-life response, both corporately and individually, to who He is, what He has done, and what He will do. (Ps. 29:2; Ps. 95:6-7a; 1 Cor. 10:31; Col. 1:17, 3:17; Heb. 10:24-25)
Biblical Authority
We value the whole counsel of God’s Word, both Old and New Testaments, as the authoritative foundation for understanding and relating to God, each other, and the world as the church applies its truths in every area of life. (Psalm 119:105; 2 Tim. 3:15-17; Heb. 4:12)
Intergenerational Relationships
We value spiritually maturing, redemptive relationships purposely working together to build biblical community across multiple generations.
(1 Cor. 12:12-27; 2 Cor. 13:11; Eph. 4:3,13,32; Phil. 2:1-11; Col. 3:14)
Holistic Discipleship
We value disciple-making as the primary purpose of Jesus’ call on the church. Therefore, being and making disciples in all areas of life is the central focus of who we are as a local church.
(Matt. 28:18-20; Mark 1:15-17; Lk. 9:23; Jn. 8:31-32; Col. 1:28-29)
Intentional Witness
We value the call to actively bear witness in word and deed to the gospel of Jesus Christ for all who will hear. (Matt. 5:14-16; Acts 1:8; 2 Cor. 5:20; Rom. 1:16; 2 Tim. 1:8; 1 Pt. 3:15; Rev. 12:11)
Community Engagement
We value that our first mission field is at home; in our families, our communities, our schools, the marketplace, and all our areas of influence. (Jer. 29:7; Jn. 13:34-35; Acts 2:41-47; Acts 17:22-34)
Global Mission
We value that God has invited us into His work of renewal as we pray, give, and go to the nations in Jesus’ name. (1 Chron. 16:24; Is. 6:1-8; Matt. 24:14; Mark 16:15; Jn. 20:21; Rom. 10:13-15)
