Friendly / down-to-earth / faith-filled / kind / passionate
We simply believe that people matter & Jesus is alive. And, we believe church should feel like home & feel like family.
We see a large family church that is alive.
A friendly gathering place where people get to know Jesus.
A loving family in which people grow in the Lord.
And a passionate movement where empowered believers serve their generation well.
THERE IS GOLD IN YOU / We believe the best in you and in others. We see and look for the “gold” - the unique gifts and graces on people’s lives and call it out of them.
NO PERFECT PEOPLE ALLOWED / Come as you are. We are all a work in progress; no one has “arrived”. We are humble, we give grace, and pursue holiness.
WE SEE THE “ONE” / We are intentionally aware of the “one”: who needs a friend, is visiting for the first time, needs community, is open to taking their next step of faith. Jesus left the 99 for the “one”, and we do too.
A “BOTH, &” CHURCH / We embrace & embody the dichotomy of truth & love, faith & wisdom, natural & supernatural, and being a church that both reaches the lost and disciples the believer. Jesus came full of grace and truth, and we do the same.
CHURCH IS ALIVE & FUN / Jesus loves the Church. Jesus died for the Church. Jesus is building the Church. We love what Jesus loves & build what He builds. Church is alive & fun!
KINGDOM OR BUST / We have a “Kingdom or Bust” mentality. We seek first the Kingdom of God in all things. We are unashamed in our full pursuit of God and prioritizing the things of God.
THE BIBLE IS OUR TRUTH / The Word of God is our guiding light for all the answers of life. We build our life on the Word of God - it is our source of truth.
WE ARE BETTER TOGETHER / We are committed to gathering and unity. “Do not forsake gathering together”. On Sunday mornings & midweek in Crews. We are meant to do life together and have unity of heart. Gossip is not tolerated.
WORK HARD. REST WELL / We celebrate healthy rhythms that cultivate a healthy spirit, soul, and body. Healthy rhythms for the long haul, to finish our race with endurance.
FAITH IS OUR RESPONSE/ Faith pleases God and is the currency of the Kingdom of God. Therefore, faith is our response; our action to the Word of God.
GENEROSITY IS OUR LIFESTYLE / “For God so loved the world that He gave…” So, we willingly live with open hands and hearts towards God and others.
WE SERVE WITH EXCELLENCE / Every detail is an evangelist. We give God our best, and believe that an organized, excellent church culture honors God and people.
PRAYER IS OUR SECRET SAUCE / Prayer is our lifeblood. Talking to God is the foundation of our relationship with God. We know God hears us and we know prayer works.
