Our Core Values
God
God is the Creator and beginning of all things. He holds everything together. He is all-powerful, all-knowing, all-present, and the giver of salvation. Because God is the center of everything we exist to glorify Him.
(Gen. 1:1, John 1:1-4, Col. 1:17, Acts 17:28, Eph. 1:19, Matt. 9:4, Ps. 139:7-8, Col. 1:22, Ps. 27:1, Is. 45:17)
Truth
Jesus is the Truth. He, along with the truth of Scripture, reveals God’s character, plan and salvation. All Scripture is God-breathed, living and the foundation on which we build our lives. Because the Word of God is Truth, it is the foundation on which we build our lives.
(John 14:6, John 5: 39, Ps. 119:105, Ps. 25:5, Ps. 43:3, 2 Tim. 3:16, Heb. 4:12, Matt. 7:24-27)
Love
God is love. He first lavished his unconditional love upon us, which compels us to love Him and others. These are the two greatest commandments. Because God is love and first loved us, our response is to love him and others.
(1 John 4:8, 1 John 4:19, 2 Cor. 5:13-15, Matt. 22:36-40)
Mission
God commands us to make disciples of every man, woman, and child. We are created to glorify God by living on mission with God. Because God has invited us to join Him on mission, we are compelled to discover and engage in His purposes.
(Matt. 28:16-20, Eph. 2:10, Acts 20:24)
Our Beliefs
There are essential beliefs that we embrace that have lead us to our four Core Values of God, Truth, Love, and Mission.
Our Vision
Be a church that exists for the glory of God as its membership engages in (1) Biblical Worship as we gather on the Lord’s Day in response to the gospel, (2) Intentional Discipleship embracing the gift and need of the new covenant fellowship, and (3) Gospel Mission understanding our responsibility to present the gospel to every man, woman, and child in our community.
Partner with other biblically faithful churches and denominations who proclaim the gospel and who take seriously their responsibility to present it to every man, woman, and child.
Plant more biblically faithful churches throughout the Northern suburbs and the region to be agents of transformation.
