Who We Are
What we believe God is directing us to be and become as His local church body.
These priorities define who we are as a church and are part of our unique DNA. You can see them clearly on the walls as you walk into our main building. They are as follows.
Priority 01
The church is not the building. The church is the PEOPLE.
People are our first priority as we bring them into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ.
We believe that the church should be made up of all people from all cultures and backgrounds. We believe that God's church is called to love people and use things — never confusing the two.
Priority 02
“Oh Lord, if your PRESENCE does not go with us, we do not wish to go!”
That was Moses' cry, and it is the cry of our heart as well. We believe God's PRESENCE should be the guiding force in all that we do, both as a church and individually. In fact, if His PRESENCE does not lead us, we do not want to go.
We pray that God's PRESENCE is felt by people from the moment they walk into our rooms — and that this PRESENCE touches lives and changes them forever.
Priority 03
The POWER Jesus promised His disciples is available to every believer today.
We believe in the POWER promised by Jesus to His disciples at the beginning of the Early Church, and that the same POWER is for every believer now.
We believe in the POWER given by the Holy Spirit to enable us to live as God directs and to overcome the cares of this world.
Priority 04
That Power, given by the Holy Spirit, has a PURPOSE for every follower of Jesus Christ.
This PURPOSE targets God's Power in each one of us as we follow God's Word and His plan for our lives, and strongly live out our witness as Christ followers.
This PURPOSE guides us into becoming who He calls us to be, and into doing what He calls us to do.
Priority 05
We are not motivated by fear or even obligation. We love Jesus with PASSION.
We are not followers of Christ simply because Hell doesn't sound like a great destination. We give our lives to Jesus Christ with all that we have.
We serve Him with PASSION and we live for Him with PASSION. We love and serve others with that same PASSION. We love People with PASSION — and we long for God's Presence with PASSION.
These priorities grow out of what we believe.
