Our Values
Values are an integral part of life. They shape who we are as individuals, and it’s the same with the Body of Christ. Values are the drivers behind the behavior of a church. This includes the decisions made, money spent, risks taken, problems
solved, goals set, and priorities determined. The following values are the guide by which we as a church operate; in other words, how we “do life together.”

We seek to be that united body which Jesus prayed for (John 17:21). We are more interested in glorifying God than arguing over non-salvational issues on which we may have differing opinions. We actively embrace the early Restoration principle of “In essentials, unity; in non-essentials, liberty; in all things, love.”
|
We strive to be culturally relevant while remaining committed to the proclamation of the Gospel and to the teaching sound doctrine. We are committed to meeting people where they are, with what they need (Jesus), presenting it (the Gospel) in a language they can understand. (1 Corinthians 9:20-22).
