the headings below to learn more!~
RELATIONSHIP
Relationship, not religion.
Relationship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Relationship with one another.
Relationship is key to a positive, powerful faith.
FREEDOM OF PRAISE AND
WORSHIP
"Let everything that has breath
praise the lord" (Psalm 150:6)
Loving the Lord with all our heart, soul, mind and
strength.
Worship brings the heart towards the Lord.
Worship opens up the doors to the Word of God.
THE REFRESHING OF THE
HOLY SPIRIT
(Acts
3:19)
We need continual refreshing by the Holy Spirit in
our day.
We constantly allow ourselves to be overly busy and
overwhelmed by life.
We must learn how to quiet ourselves and rest in the
presence of the Holy Spirit.
THE OPERATION OF THE
SPIRITUAL GIFTS
(Ephesians 4:7-16)
The gifts are for the edification of the body and
for evangelism.
We provide an environment of teaching, training, and
mentoring in the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
THE HEALING OF THE BROKEN
HEART
(Isaiah 61:1)
Our hearts have been wounded by sin.
We operate out of those hurts.
As we allow the Holy Spirit into those wounds, He
will bring
healing through forgiveness, repentance and His
power.
A healed heart will be a powerful force in a lost
world.
PRAYER MINISTRY
(James
5:13-16)
We believe in the power and force of prayer.
PRESENCE AND POWER OF GOD
The
manifest presence of God and the Holy Spirit in our
lives.
We value recognizing the presence of God and flowing
with Him allowing Him freedom to do what He wants.
There is nothing like the presence and power of God.
COMMUNITY AND FAMILY
ENVIRONMENT
Families are the foundation of society.
We desire to build and strengthen and bring healing
to that foundation.
Also, the church must be an active force in the
communities it serves.
We look to become that force.
We value these aspects because we
desire to see the church be an effective expression of
Jesus Christ to a lost and hurting world. As we avail
ourselves of these values and allow God to do the work
in our lives, we will be effective.
