Core Values

Core Values

These core values are the identifying marks of our local church.

  1. Biblical Authority. We affirm God’s Word, the Bible, as the final authority for doctrine and practice.
  2. Biblical Preaching. We believe that God has decided to act by His Spirit through His Word and thus clear preaching and teaching of God’s Word is His plan for the saving of souls and maturing of believers.
  3. Passionate Prayer. We admit our complete dependence on the Holy Spirit’s empowerment by practicing personal humility, seeking the face of God, and actively listening to Him in consistent times of private and corporate prayer.
  4. Meaningful Worship. We seek to glorify God by whole-heartedly exalting His supreme worth in both corporate and personal worship.
  5. Holy Living. We believe that God calls all believers to demonstrate a lifestyle of Christ-likeness in their thoughts, attitudes, and actions, which involves living out their Christian faith in every area of life.
  6. All People. We believe in the God-given uniqueness and dignity of every human life and will recognize the eternal value of each person by treating all individuals with respect and love.
  7. Intentional Discipleship. We purpose that through biblical instruction and mentoring relationships we will make disciples who obey Christ and disciple others.
  8. Heart-felt Hospitality. We purpose to cultivate an atmosphere of sincere kindness and support in which everyone feels welcome in our church and our homes.
  9. The Family. We partner with the family to model and successfully transfer the Christian faith from generation to generation by providing Biblical preaching, small group Bible studies, and fellowship opportunities that foster a culture in which to build authentic relationships within our church family.
  10. Loving Community. We commit to live out the “one another” commands of Scripture in a unified, redemptive community.
