Our Values
1. Bible Teaching and Preaching
We believe that the Spirit filled teaching and preaching of God’s Word is the primary catalyst to transform people’s lives. For this reason, the teaching, preaching, and modeling of God’s inspired Word are central in our church and lives.
2. Loving Atmosphere
Jesus said, “By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” What God wants our church to be known for is not our building, not the preaching, nor the programs. Rather, He wants us to be known for our love. We want to cultivate an atmosphere where people—from the time they step on our church parking lot—will experience the love of Christ in our midst.
3. Small Groups
We believe that everyone in the church should have Christian friends who genuinely know them, love them and encourage them to grow. For this reason, we are committed to a vital small group community.
4. Evangelism and Missions
Jesus told His followers, “You will be my witnesses in Jerusalem , and Judea and Samaria , and to the uttermost parts of the earth.” We are committed to equip the people of our church to share their faith with their friends, family, neighbors and coworkers. We are also committed to send, support, and pray for workers who will take the Gospel to the unreached peoples of the world.
5. Life-Impact Worship
The aim of every worship service will be to glorify God and to transform lives. To this end, our worship will be characterized by:
A warm, loving atmosphere where people feel the love of Christ in our midst,
Freshness, and authenticity that will inspire people to celebrate God and grow in their relationship with Him.
Clear expositional and life-related preaching of God’s Word.
.6. Every Member Is a Minister
We are committed to help every member of our church understand how God has uniquely shaped them for ministry and to help and encourage them to find their place of ministry in the church.
7. Intentional Discipleship
We believe that wherever a person is spiritually, he or she is not done with their walk yet. For each of us, there is a “next step” to take. Our church is about helping people take that next step. From the beginning first steps in Christ to Christ-like spiritual maturity, we are committed to a deliberate process of helping people grow in their relationship with Christ.
8. Youth Ministry
Recognizing that at least three quarters of people who respond to Christ do so before the age of eighteen, we are committed to impacting the next generation for Christ. We do this by offering a range of life-changing children’s ministries—AWANA, Kid’s Church, Sunday School, EDGE (Youth Ministry). Each of these ministries offers a loving, fun and exciting atmosphere where kids love to attend. Our goal is to come along side parents and assist them in leading their children to saving faith in Christ and to nurture them to maturity.
