CORNERSTONE
VALUES
[ˈvalyo͞os ] the regard that something is held to deserve; the importance, worth, or usefulness of something:
Courageous Faith
We live with a courage that shapes our faith, causes big thinking, and taking big steps towards God results in watching Him move big!
Simplicity
We choose to live focused lives by cutting away clutter and busyness that weighs us down. Being free -- helps us to make an impact that reaches beyond ourselves and touches our community
Excellence
Everything is for God. We will embrace our limitations and strive to honor God and inspire those we influence, by never settling and always bringing our best
Integrity
We hold ourselves to be truthful and honest regarding financial, relational, biblical, and practical areas. Integrity is vital to our life and without it we feel we would lose our influence.
Creativity
God's message of love may be old, yet we look for and celebrate new ways to better communicate this mission of hope with passionate hearts. It is engrained in us to take risks that lead to freedom where we can express the old in new ways.
Generosity
We will never shy away and always lead the way in generous giving to our city, our church and our families. We believe generosity is the fruit of gratitude and it is more blessed to give than to receive.
REACHING
We will do whatever is needed to reach people who do not know Jesus. Doing what others will not, to capture and attract those who are far from Jesus.
HARMONY
People Matter! We strive to understand one's value and potential in God thus we lead without intimidation, place others needs before our own, speak with respect, and honor those around us with sincere love. We aim for unity..
Serving
The church exists for the world, not for us. It honors God when we serve and we will serve without reservation to advance the potential of others finding and following Jesus. We are not here to consume but to contribute.
