Value 6: Prayerful Dependence We adopt a mindset of dependence upon The Lord, manifested in a culture of prayer. We believe that prayer is not only commanded by The Lord as a spiritual discipline, but it is our joy to enter the throne of grace. We do not assume that God will bless our efforts apart from a holy, prayerful dependence upon Him. Value 7: Generous Living Generous living is at the heart of our faith because God gave His only Son. We believe Christians are called to be creators rather than consumers and as abundance flows from our productivity, we will be a blessing to others. We believe that generosity reveals trust in The Lord and always want to live with open hands that are quick to give. We are cheerful in giving away our time, our money, and our people in service to The Lord. Preached by Jared Kress on March 17th, 2024. Part of our series, "Clarity."

Value 4: Theological Depth We challenge Christians to grow mature in their walk with Christ, believing that theological depth and biblical literacy will yield deeper worship, obedience to His commands, and abiding in Christ. Value 5: Bold Application We boldly apply the Word of God to the issues of the day and bring the truth to bear without fear of consequences. We are more concerned with how God views us than with how man views us. God’s Word is not meant to be read and studied in a vacuum, but rather practically applied in the real world.

Value 2: Kingdom Impact Jesus Christ is King and our labors in this world should contribute to the expanse of His Kingdom . We are committed to evangelism, discipleship, missions, and seeing Christ glorified in all the earth. Value 3: Multigenerational Family We are a church family made up of multiple generations of believers who love The Lord, love one another, and willingly lay down our individual preferences for each other. Because we believe the church is a family, we desire that like-minded believers would join us and experience the joy of belonging to the household of God. Our families contribute to the building up of the next generation; therefore, we invest in the spiritual health of our children and grandchildren, treating them as great blessing from God.
