Our Vision and Values
The Vision of our church is:
Jesus came and told his disciples, “I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:18-20 NLT)
Here are the Values that we are committed to:
Biblical Authority
“We will demonstrate absolute dependence on and radical obedience to the truth of the Bible in its entirety, in an age of intellectual drifting that is seeking for truth.”
Dynamic Spirituality
“We will seek to bring glory to God by placing at the utmost centre our need to remain in Christ, and as an outflow of this relationship, by living out the reality and integrity of our new life in Christ.”
Spirit Led
“We will depend unwaveringly on the ministry, empowerment and leadership of the Holy Spirit in all areas of the church’s life, ministry and witness.”
Intentional Reproduction
“We will passionately commit ourselves to partner with the Spirit of God in birthing and multiplying new disciples, ministries, cell groups, servant-leaders and congregations.”
Loving Relationships
“We will love in ways that transform the lives of people around us, just as Christ has loved us, regardless of age, race, gender, religion or social standing.”
Effective Disciplemaking
“We will strive to make devoted reproducing followers of Christ who learn to follow Jesus, in ways relevant to the time and context in which we live.”
Cultural Transformation
“We will act as the ‘Church in the Community’, being an integral, authentic, positive, transformational agent of God’s healing, mercy and goodness.”
Leadership Development
“We will prayerfully identify, develop and care for Spirit-filled servant leaders who are passionately committed to serving and shepherding the Church of Jesus Christ.”
