| What Do We Value? |
|
| Prayerful Dependence |
John 15:5, Acts 1:14
and Ephesians 6:10-18 |
| We are committed to
manifesting complete dependence on Christ, both personally and
corporately, through faithful and faith-building prayer. |
|
| Obedience to God's Word |
Luke 6:46-48, John
8:31-32
and James 1:21-25 |
| We are committed to
embracing God's Word through active obedience. We recognize that
it is not enough to be merely hearers of God's Word. Our response, both
personally and corporately, to the faithful teaching and preaching of
the Bible must be prompt and complete obedience. |
|
| Intentional Disciplemaking |
Matthew 28:19-20, John
15:16
and Acts 1:8 |
| We are committed to obeying
this command by developing followers of Jesus who confidently and
courageously multiply disciples to the ends of the earth,
beginning with our neighbors. |
|
| Christ-Honoring Worship |
John 4:23-24, Psalm 100
and Romans 12:1-2 |
| We are committed to honoring
Christ with the praise of our lips and the conduct of our lives,
resulting in inspiring worship. Inspiring worship is the
manifestation of the Spirit in our midst and in our lives that draws
people to Christ. |
|
| Loving Relationships |
John 13:35 and Romans
12:9-13 |
| We are committed to each
other in Christ. Loving relationships are the building blocks for
the experience of genuine community, producing unity in the church
family, and a powerful witness to a watching world. |
|
| Spiritual Vitality |
John 7:38, 10:10 and
15:1-1 |
| We are committed to your
vitality in Christ. Establishing and maintaining an abiding
relationship in Christ is the key to enjoying the fullness of the
Spirit. It is the presence and power of the Holy Spirit that enables us
to live obedient, transformed lives. |
