WE JOIN GOD

We embrace identification in Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection and the fullness of life in the Spirit. This Message of the Cross is central to victorious living and ministry. Therefore, our priorities are love for God, abiding in Him, and doing what He says.

COMMUNITY WITH A PURPOSE

We fellowship, pray, and work with others. We collaborate across a wide spectrum of the Body of Christ, recognizing each one’s character and abilities to bring the greatest value to the Kingdom of God.

(John 17:20-23; Luke 10:1-2; Romans 12:4-6; Philippians 2:2-5; Psalm 133)

FAITH-FILLED INITIATIVE

We take joy in working and serving – giving our best efforts - to support God’s work with discipline, creativity, and excellence as an act of worship; while trusting the Holy Spirit for exceptional lasting results.

(Nehemiah 4:6, 14; Ephesians 6:7-8; Colossians 3:23-24; Hebrews 11:6)

INVEST IN PEOPLE

We invest in equipping mature disciples of Christ Jesus who are trained in the context of authentic spiritual community with the knowledge, skills, and vision to effectively fulfill the Great Commission.

TRANSFORMATION OF LIVES

We are intent on reaching, rescuing, and restoring people into relationship with God, and establishing gatherings of followers of Jesus for sustainable holistic Kingdom impact in families, communities, and to the world. (Matthew 22:18-20, 38; Luke 11:2; Revelation 7:9)
