Core Values:
Christ as the Head of the Church – Ephesians 1:22-23; 2:19-21
We value Christ as the head of our lives and as the foundation of our
church. We submit ourselves to his direction, guidance and control.
Biblical Teaching – 2 Timothy 3:16-17 and 2 Timothy 4:2
We value Biblical teaching because the Holy Bible is the complete,
inerrant and infallible word of God to all mankind. It is the foundation
of our beliefs and it is proclaimed from our pulpit, taught in our classes
and honored by our obedience.
Worship- Romans 12:1
We value worship that draws us closer to God’s presence. Whether
whispering our personal desires for him or passionately singing his
praise, we declare God is worthy.
Prayer – Matthew 6:9-13, Philippians 4:6, 19
We value prayer as our means of communicating intimately and
reverently with God.
Evangelism – Acts 1:8, Matthew 28:19-20
We value Evangelism because we love people and want to see them
come to know Christ as their Lord and Savior.
Community –Acts 2:44-47
We value a sense of community in order to develop relationships that
nurture, support and teach others to be Christ-like.
