Our Values: How we are living

These are the values – the lifestyle principles – that we are led by. It is our aim to live biblically-inspired, Holy Spirit empowered lives, and by the grace of Christ, these values express what we are aiming for:

King and Kingdom

• God comes first – he is our King.
• We are a covenant community with Jesus Christ at the centre; loved, forgiven and adopted by the Father; empowered by His Holy Spirit.
• We seek first His Kingdom in all areas of our lives. (Matt 6:33)

 

Passion and Compassion

• We seek to pray, praise and worship in Spirit and in Truth, with sincere and unbridled passion for Jesus. His glory is our heart’s desire.  (Jn 4:23-24)
• We live and serve motivated by Jesus’ love and compassion for all people. This is shown in how we serve one another, reach the lost and encourage the broken (Eph 4:32; Luke 19:10; Jas 1:27)

Vigilant and Diligent

In our everyday lives we hold fast to the Word of God and, with the Spirit’s help, practise what we preach.  (Ps 119:25-32)

• By God’s grace we make good choices and protect our hearts and minds from evil influence. (Eph 5:8-20)
• As heaven awaits us, we persevere as daily disciples to see God fulfil His plan and purpose in us and through us, to change the world. (Phil 3:12-14)
