Core Values

Our Core Values

Biblically Relevant Expository Preaching & Teaching: To stand for the historic, fundamental truths of Scripture, and through Scripture, to equip the saints for service, and for the building up of the body of Christ for unity, knowledge of the Son of God, and maturity, measured by the stature of the fullness of Christ, and for protection against the deceitful scheming of Satan. Eph. 4:12-16

Fellowship: To encourage and provide opportunities for developing meaningful relationships among believers. Heb. 10:24-25; 13:1-2; Acts 2:42-47

Worship: To provide the means for developing and expressing God-centered worship in spirit and truth by prayer, songs of praise, adoration, admonishment, singing and making melody in our hearts to the Lord, and to administer the ordinances of baptism and the Lord's supper. Heb. 13:15; Eph. 5:19; Col. 3:16; 1 Cor. 11:23-34; Matt. 28:19; Acts 2:42; John 4:24

Ministry: To provide the means for developing and exercising spiritual gifts for the edification of the body and the evangelization of the lost. Rom. 12:3-8; I Pet. 4:10-11

Witnessing as a Way of Life: To present the gospel of Jesus Christ to those who have never trusted in Jesus Christ as their Savior, and to encourage them to trust in Him. Matt. 28:19-20; Acts 1:8; 1 Thess. 1:2-10; Acts 4:20

Purity: To live holy lives in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, acting as salt and as lights in the world. Phil. 2:15; Matt. 5:13-14; 1 Pet. 2:11-15; Col. 4:5

Missions: To be a church that is promoting, praying for, supporting, and sacrificing for God's work through missions and missionaries, both here at home and abroad. Matt. 9:38

Family:  To be a body that strengthens marriages and families. We believe that the home is to be spiritually led by the father.  The family has the primary responsibility of discipleship of children, with support from the Church.  Deut. 6:7-9; Eph. 6:4

Prayer: Committed to prayer as a vital part of relationship with Christ and to provide support and encouragement for others, both as individuals and corporately as a church body.  1 Thess. 5:17
