Core Values
Defining Our PurposeToday.Church Core Values
Remembering what matters most keeps us on track as we follow Jesus together. #lovefirst
We are all about:
Love. Without Love, Nothing Matters.
Love is always worth the risk!
Love never fails!
What does love require of me?
(John 13:34, 1 Corinthians 13:1-7, 16:14, Ephesians 5:1-2, 1 John 4:10)
People. Everything Is An Outreach! Everyone Has A Place!
Sin is the only line we won’t cross to reach more people for Jesus!
It’s about people, not process.
How does this reach new people?
(Ezekiel 34:16, Matthew 9:36-38, Luke 5:32, 19:10, 1 Corinthians 9:22, Colossians 4:5-6)
Relationships. Following Jesus Isn't A Solo Sport!
We need each other. Church is a family!
Life is better together.
Who am I following Jesus with?
(John 13:34, Acts 2:44-47, Ephesians 4:1-8, Hebrews 3:13, 10:24-25)
Mercy. Everyone Deserves Kindness!
Respect is a choice. No matter where you are in life, we are all the least of these!
Forgiven people forgive people!
How would I treat Jesus?
(Matthew 5:7, 25:45, Luke 6:36, 7:47, Romans 12:15, 15:1, Ephesians 4:31-32)
Celebration. Following Jesus Together Is a Blast!
We don’t celebrate stuff. That’s boring. Celebrating people is more fun!
It’s always time for joy!
Who have I celebrated lately?
(John 15:11, Luke 15:10, Romans 14:17, Philippians 2:17-18)
Faith. Impossible Isn’t In Our Vocabulary!
Disciples don’t play it safe. All things are possible.
Jesus makes miracles normal!
Have I told the mountain to move yet?
(Mark 9:23, 11:22-24, Romans 10:17, Hebrews 11:1, James 2:14)
Power. Following Jesus Isn’t Normal, It’s Miraculous!
Jesus promised! We seek and expect the power of the Spirit.
Disciples receive spiritual gifts!
Am I asking for more?
(Luke 11:13, Acts 1:8, 2:4, Romans 8:11, 1 Corinthians 12:7-11)
Giving. Jesus Followers Are Ridiculously Generous!
You can’t out-give God, but we keep trying!
Jesus gave everything.
Is there more that I can give?
(Luke 6:38, 12:33-34, 1 Corinthians 16:2, 2 Corinthians 9:6-11, 1 John 3:17)
Purpose. Everyone Has Talent And Potential!
You were created to make a difference serving others!
God has a plan and purpose for you!
Who can I serve?
(Luke 8:15, Ephesians 2:10, Philippians 1:6, 1 Peter 4:10)
