Our values are our passion; it’s what we bleed. It’s the blood that flows from the Heart of this Church, namely Jesus through His body. Just like blood gives vitality to the body, so too do our values give life to our mission. These values are both apparent (should be seen in us) but also ever expanding (should be growing in us). While there are so many things to value through our beautiful Creator, these are the values that have most shaped us that we want to see shape our church.
Cut us open and we hope to bleed the following six values. The later five ultimately flow from and radiate out of the central value of God’s worth
1. God’s Worth
2. God’s Word
3. God With Us
4. God’s People
5. God’s Work
6. God’s Way

The authority, the boundaries, the mystery, the freedom and guidance that comes from living under God’s Word. (2 Tim 3:16, Isaiah 40:7)

Dependence on God. (1 Peter 5:6-7, Philippians 4:7-8, 2 Chronicles 20:12, John 17:24)
