Because God is our source of life, we pursue Him with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength.
We demonstrate this by:

• committing daily to worship, prayer, and the Word.
• living out our commitment not only at church, but at home, work, and play.
• yielding every part of our lives to the leadership of the Holy Spirit.

 (Jeremiah 29:13;Mark 12:30;John 15:5)

Because God accepts us, forgives us, and desires to make us whole, we freely extend His grace and love in all our relationships.
We demonstrate this by:

• engaging in life together with transparency, humility, and compassion.
• devoting ourselves to speak the truth in love.
• modeling God's acceptance in a way that welcomes the broken, promotes forgiveness, and allows freedom to fail.

(Romans 12:15-16; Romans 15:7; 1 John 4:10)

Because God unites us in the essentials, we can celebrate diversity in the non-essentials such as spiritual gifts, race, social and spiritual backgrounds.
We demonstrate this by:

• maintaining a shared loyalty to Jesus Christ, our mission, and our core beliefs, while promoting diversity. 
• intentionally seeking diversity in our relationships and learning from those who are different from us.
• choosing to remain humble, extend grace, and seek first to understand.

(John 17:20-23; 1 Corinthians 12:4-6; Galatians 3:28; Ephesians 2:14)

Because God is a generous and sending God, we surrender our lives to give and go as God leads.
We demonstrate this by:

• giving sacrificially of our time, talent, and treasure to serve the church, our neighbors, and the lost and marginalized in our community and beyond.
• equipping and mobilizing people for life and ministry through evangelism, discipleship, and leadership development.
• multiplying leaders, ministries, and churches to advance the Kingdom of God

(Matthew 28:18-20; John 3:16; John 20:21-22; Acts 1:8)
