Our Values
The truths and principles that under gird the mission and vision.
Exalt God
  God is wonderful! He is the creator and sustainer of life. We are designed to live for Him and from Him. Knowing and loving Him is our greatest   privilege.
  God Himself is our highest priority. More than any particular teaching, doctrine, or principle, we emphasize having a living, loving relationship with God t   through Jesus Christ.
  Worship is the highest form of prayer and the highest calling of the church.
  We desire to live lives of worship that bring glory to Him in all we are and do.
  We desire all that God wants to give us. We hunger for His presence, His Word, His Spirit, His holiness, His life, and His power.
Embrace One Another
  Jesus said loving our neighbor as ourselves is the 2nd greatest commandment. He desires that we love each other as He loved us.
  We endeavor to love each other in word and action, even when it costs us something.
  God designed us to have friendships and relationships. We are radical in reaching out, welcoming, including, and valuing people right where they are.
  Getting people connected in a small group is essential for wholeness and growth.
  We seek diversity because we realize God wants to make us all “one” in Christ. We seek understanding and reconciliation between people groups.
  All lasting ministry comes out of relationships. Everyone does better and more is accomplished when we work as a team.
Equip
  God has a great plan for every person. We try to help them discover and live that plan. As each person does their part, the kingdom of God grows and   people find fulfillment and life satisfaction.
  Everyone needs training and equipping to do what God has called them to do.
  All leaders and members should be passing on what God has given them.
  We need a team, a variety of leaders, to equip the church so that it grows to maturity in all areas.
  We practice “Next Generation Thinking” so that we stay relevant and are consistently developing new leaders. Faithfulness and fruitfulness are necessary   for Godly promotion.
Encourage
  Victorious living is God’s will for all of us and is made possible through faith in God and His word.
  The Bible will change your life. We encourage the study of God’s Word.
  Pray and obey is God’s way to success. Living the Christian life should have major doses of fun. When we delight ourselves in God, He promises to   give us the desires of our hearts.
  Encouraged people are happy and productive people. We value initiative and give freedom to experiment with new ideas. Most of God’s guidance   comes “in the rough”, so short term failure is often the price and the teacher of success.
Expand
  The Great Commission is everyone’s commission. Each Christ follower and each church must prioritize expanding God’s kingdom into every area of   society in every nation.
  God loves everyone and has great plans for everyone. They must know that, and we must show them and tell them.
  Each believer is designed by God to reach others for Christ. Each believer should develop relationships with those who do not know Jesus yet and love   them towards God.
  Diverse groups and ministries are great ways to reach different types of people.
  We desire to encourage and promote healthy church planting. This is one of the best ways to reach and disciple people.
  God wants to fill every nation with His glory. He wants to reach people from every people group on the planet. We support missions through prayer,   financial giving, and training. We encourage and value the sending out of missionaries
