We will advocate for broken and marginalized people everywhere,
both inside and outside of the church. We will be a house of mercy
We act in fearless conviction that the rules have changed because
of the cross. We will not be reactionary to anything or anyone
and because of the resurrection, will initiate a reality based upon Eternity.
We are an ongoing process of growth, change, and development.
We will own up to where we are, but we wont stay here.
We will collect and tell Kingdom stories. we will remember
and honor the times God marks our lives.
We celebrate the communion as the full expression of God’s use
of flesh to accomplish His purpose. We believe life in the spirit has to be
lived out in the body. Our own bodies are now broken
with His for the sake of the world.
We embrace the church’s past, present, and future. We seek intergenerational
and cultural diversity. We will harness the classic spiritual practices and
truths that transcend time and place. We are a local
representation of a timeless ministry.
We will challenge you to think hard about God, church, and the culture.
We will not treat you like a consumer, but as a co-conspirator
in the re-imaging of the world.
We will incite worship that incorporates both knowledge and passion,
believing that the head and the heart are to be integrated and not divorced.
We believe the Earth is the Lord’s and all that is in it.
We anticipate His Kingdom coming and His will being done on
Earth as it is in Heaven. We will not be done engaging the world
until the final restoration of creation.
