LIFE Core Values

We Value:

  • God’s Word, the Bible, and we recognize it as the final authority for our lives. (John 4)
  • An intimate relationship with God, expressed not only in word but also in deed. (Mark 12:28-31; 1 John 3:13-18)
  • Personal relationships. Accountability, belonging, care, and spiritual growth happen best with relationally-connected believers. (Acts 2:46-47)
  • Making disciples as a command given to the church. We are each responsible to pass along to others the knowledge, skills, and opportunities that have been entrusted to us. (Matthew 28:18-20)
  • Quality leadership as essential for a quality ministry. (Titus 1)
  • Prayer as a means through which we communicate with God and through which He brings about eternal change. (Luke 11:1-13)
  • Grace as the context in which God's standards are to be taught and lived. (Titus 2:11-15)
  • Creativity as an effective way to express sound doctrine. (Genesis 1-2)
  • Excellence in ministry because it honors God and inspires people. (1 Corinthians 3:10-15)
  • Transformation, not just information, as the basis of a successful ministry. (2 Corinthians 3)
