Family Values
We pull our Family Values straight from the description of the early church we read about in Acts 2:42-27.​​
GOSPEL DRIVEN
"And they devoted themselves to the apostles teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers" Acts 2:42
As followers of Jesus, everything we do (home, work, and play) must be driven by the good news of who Jesus is and what he has done. The gospel drives us to follow Jesus and help others to do the same in all areas of life.
SPIRIT-LED
"...and awe came upon every soul and many wonders and sign were being done through the apostles." Acts 2:43
Jesus told his followers that the Spirit of God would guide them. As his followers today, we believe the Spirit of God lives in us, and with his power, we can be obedient to Jesus’ commands here and now.
WE ARE BETTER TOGETHER
"And all who believed were together and had all things in common..." Acts 2:44
We were not designed to follow Jesus alone. It’s only together that we can be and do what God has designed us for. Together, we seek to engage the world around us with the good news of Jesus.
GENEROUS
"And they were selling their possessions and belonging and distributing the proceeds to all, as any had need." Acts 2:45
Jesus was a man of great compassion, loving those around him, and as his followers we are called to be compassionate too, showing love in action, to the world around us. Jesus’ compassion led to his generosity. As Jesus’ followers, we are called to be generous as well.
JOY-FILLEd
"And day by day attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they received their food with glad and generous hearts, praising God and havine favor with all the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved." Acts 2:46-47
We can always be filled with joy because of who Jesus is and what he has done for us. Even when the battles of life rage around us, we will choose to fight for joy because we are loved and valued by God.
