INSPIRATION - birthed through our desire to express our love for God with powerful
praise and passionate worship. We seek to "inspire Godly desire" in all
we do.
TEACHING
- is the passing on of knowledge that makes a difference in a person's
life. Knowledge is power. Knowledge of the ways of God is the greatest
power of all. Truth is a person; Jesus is his name; knowing him is
everything.
ACCEPTANCE - without approving immoral lifestyles or compromising God's ways. We
believe that the acceptance of all people is our central mandate.
Therefore "loving God and loving people" is a core part of our
ethos.
EVANGELISM - is a natural part of who we are and what we do. We always seek to
increase our circle of love. There is no room for "purple circles" or "in crowd" in our community of faith. We exist to lead others to Christ
and Christ to others!
SUPERNATURAL
- is naturally super. We add God's Super to our natural and this begins
and ends in prayer. We pray with natural and supernatural tones, not
tongues alone. We believe the prayers of righteous men and women makes
much power available, dynamic in its influence.
RELEVANCE - is the compass by which we navigate our way through every area of
ministry and life. Before we give the answer, we hear the question. We
assume nothing and test everything. We seek to discover places of
connection. We scratch people where they itch and meet real needs.
HOSPITALITY - food, fun and family make up the fabric of our social interaction as a
church. Besides worshipping, praying and hearing the word we love to
entertain others. For us Christianity starts in the temple and is sealed
at the table.
FREEDOM - was purchased at a great price and should never be lost without a
fight. We are permission givers not decision takers. Empowering others
to live life and enjoy the journey promotes corporate freedom.
PROSPERITY - defined as the freedom to move forward in every area of life free from
unnecessary restrictions, we believe prosperity is a state of mind, a
condition of the heart and a way of life.
SERVANTHOOD - out of a heart to meet the
"felt needs" of people we believe in
leadership that is securely founded in serving others.
ACCOUNTABILITY - saying one thing and
doing the other will repulse us! If we offend we don't just say sorry,
we are sorry. We like people to inspect our fruit, judge our character
and prove our integrity. We like open books and short accounts. |
