01

Gospel Centrality

We believe that the good news of Jesus death, burial, and resurrection is the greatest and most powerful story ever told, and it is the power of God for salvation. Therefore, we will strive to make the gospel story the center of all we believe, teach, and do.

02

Spirit Empowered Unity

We want to be the answer to Jesus’ prayer in John 17:21 that “They would be one as I and the Father are one.” We are eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace because our peace with God (vertical reconciliation), is what makes our peace with one another (horizontal reconciliation) a reality! The Church is not like a family, we are family.

03

Radical Hospitality

We want the front door of the church, to be the front door of our homes! We desire to be a missional Family that not only invites non-Christians into our lives, but also seeks opportunities to step into theirs. We will leverage our gifts, resources, and TIME to seek the welfare of our city through deeds of Justice and Mercy, especially to the vulnerable, poor, and oppressed.

04

disciple-making intentionality

Jesus said, “Go, make disciples" (Matthew 28:19-20). This is the mission of the Church. Therefore, disciple-making is not a ministry of the local church but the ministry of the local church. It is essential that we do not get caught up in over-programming and under-discipling people. If we are to be faithful to the commission of Jesus, then disciple-making must be at the heart of all that we seek to do within our ministry context. We desire to help equip disciples to make disciples who become mature disciples who continue the mission of making more disciples.

05

Multi-Ethnicity

The bible is clear that every human is made in the image of God. The distinctions that we have from ethnicity to gender, are not arbitrary or the result of sin, but the very intentional work of God for the purpose of his glory and the good of humanity. With this truth in mind, we will intentionally seek to be a diverse, multiethnic family that reflects the diversity of the community that we gather in. When Jesus returns in glory and the beautiful reality of Revelation 7:9-12 is fulfilled, it will be because of the Church’s faithful obedience to preach the Gospel to ALL NATIONS. The Gospel is an ALL NATIONS Gospel, and we consider it an incredible privilege that we as believers get to participate in seeing the will of God be done on earth as it is in heaven until he returns.
