We Value Growth

And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Chirst; until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ.
Ephesians 4:11-13

We will consistently challenge people to a lifestyle of intentional growth in biblical knowledge and priorities, life and ministry skills, personal character and heartfelt vision.

We believe that the primary tools the Holy Spirit uses in growing us toward Christ-likeness are prayer, God's Word, and life-on-life interaction. We will emphasize prayer, not just at the personal level but also throughout every ministry of the church. We will honor the original intent of the Scriptures while highlighting their significance for contemporary living. We believe private, public, and prayerful study of the Word of God will lead to dynamic application. We will encourage personal transformation through life-on-life mentoring, discipling, and counseling.
