OUR CORE BELIEFS & VALUES
Authenticity
We believe in being a Church that walks in authenticity. We invite each and every person to come as they are. We believe it's essential to be a Church of authentic Christians, because Jesus invites us to bring all of ourselves to Him. Even our brokenness.
Integrity
We believe in being a Church that walks in integrity. We want our walk to match our talk. We are committed to being doers of the Word of God rather than hearers only. We believe integrity within the Church, and leadership is essential to developing a Gospel-Centered culture.
Courage
We believe in being a Church that walks in courage. We want to encourage and empower each other to step into courageous living rather than fearful living. We believe we are given a Spirit not of fear, but rather of power, love, and self-control. We believe Courage is essential within the Church for the Church to change the world as Jesus did.
Grace
We believe in being a Church that walks in grace. We want to be a Church full of grace and mercy for sinful and broken people, because God is full of grace and mercy for us. We believe that grace is essential within the Church, because Grace is what brought the Church together in the first place.

Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
— Matthew 28: 16-20
