Christ-followership

1 Corinthians 11:1 - Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.

We believe that our most important goal is following Jesus Christ and
demonstrating His supremacy in all things (Col. 1:15-18). Only by
following Him do we have the God-ordained authority to lead others into
His purposes.

Integrity

Proverbs 11:3 - The integrity of the upright guides them, but the unfaithful are destroyed by their duplicity.

We believe that integrity, at its core, means a person is fully
integrated and without duplicity, so that his thoughts, words and
actions all agree with one other. For a Christian, this means we're
guided by the Holy Spirit and therefore under-girded by integrity in
all our decisions.

Servanthood

1 Peter 4:10 - Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms.

Based on the example of Christ (John 13:15-16), who served us to the
point of death (Phil. 2:5-11), we believe God calls each person to a
life of service. For this reason, God has given each person natural and
spiritual gifts that are to be used to serve others and subsequently
give God's grace to them. We must faithfully and diligently discover
and use our gifts in order to serve others.

Unity

John 17:22-23 - [Jesus prayed to the Father,] I have given [my followers] the glory that you
gave me, that they may be one as we are one: I in them and you in me.
May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you
sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.

We believe that the greatest method for displaying Christ's supremacy
is unity and love for one another. This is perfectly displayed by God
the Father's love for His Son and adopted children. Though we will not
agree on everything, we strive to be united in a common love for Jesus
and a continual desire to please Him.
