core values

1

Intimacy with Jesus

We believe that He can be found by those who search for Him with all their hearts (Jeremiah 29:13). We pursue deep intimacy, communion, and friendship with Jesus. Ministry to the Lord is of supreme importance.


God is Good All the Time

We believe God is good all the time (Psalms 34:8, Mark 10:18). His goodness informs our faith, and so we believe that Jesus wants to perform miracles today (Hebrews 13:8.) We take acts of faith to reveal the heart and the will of the Father to the world. His goodness also informs our suffering, and so we believe in persevering for the sake of the gospel (Romans 5:3). In order to be more like Jesus, we believe it's necessary to share not only in His power, but His pain.

Culture of Honor

We believe the culture of honor is the culture of heaven (Romans 12:10). We always believe the best about each other and give each other the benefit of the doubt. We pursue connection by outdoing one another in honor, engaging healthy confrontations, and always maintaining a familial mindset.


Living a Holy Lifestyle

We believe in living a holy lifestyle. Without holiness, no one will see the Lord (Hebrews 12:14). We believe that attempting miracles without holiness and maturity of character is dangerous (Matthew 7:22). We do not want to grieve the Holy Spirit in this way; we obey His laws because we love Him, not because we have to.
