Our Values:
Our mission and purpose are strategically implemented and guided by these values:
REDEMPTION
We value the supremacy of the plan of redemption as a revelation of hope and meaning in human life through which mankind fulfills its purpose and God receives glory.
REVELATION
We value the various forms of God's revelation to mankind through which he communicates his character, purposes and will. We seek to grow in our knowledge of God and in understanding our significance in serving his eternal purposes through creation, scripture, the Holy Spirit and the person and work of Jesus.
REPENTANCE
We value honest awareness of the sinful nature of the flesh and the deceitful nature of the heart. We value the personal, corporate and practical pursuit of holiness.
RELATIONSHIP
We value loving relationships as the primary dynamic and context through which we accomplish God’s purposes and most reflect His nature as revealed in the Trinity.
RENEWAL
We value the hope and embrace the reality of ongoing spiritual and personal renewal that comes as a result of living by faith, remaining in Jesus and yielding to the Holy Spirit.
