Core Values

What our life together is built on

Three convictions stand at the heart of our church life.

Authority of Scripture

The Bible is the inspired, error-free Word of God. True change is produced by the Word preached in the power of the Holy Spirit.

"All Scripture is given by inspiration of God… that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work." — 2 Timothy 3:16-17

Power of Prayer

Prayer is the engine of our church life. Every ministry should be prepared in prayer; every member supported by intercession.

"The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much." — James 5:16

Fulfilling the Mission

We bring glory to God by fulfilling the Great Commandment and the Great Commission, seeking to be a good witness to the world.

"Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations…" — Matthew 28:19-20

Core Values

Stewardship, Family & Integrity

Active Stewardship & Service

Active Stewardship & Service

Responsibility for the Lord's work belongs to all members. We encourage everyone to exercise their spiritual gifts to the maximum capacity God has given them.

"Moreover it is required in stewards that one be found faithful." — 1 Corinthians 4:2

Family as the Foundation

Family as the Foundation

A church cannot be more than the families that compose it. We encourage a home life where each person assumes their God-given role.

"But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." — Joshua 24:15

Theological Integrity

Theological Integrity

Rooted in Puritan thought and the early Church Fathers, we believe spiritual gifts were not withdrawn after the closing of the biblical Canon. The Word of God should be proclaimed by all recognized by the community as having the gift to do so.
