"We believe our purpose is to help people discover
a genuine relationship with Jesus Christ,
and to live it out in everyday life."

Our heart and passion, first and foremost, is helping people discover a personal relationship with Jesus (outreach).  Then, its about that relationship with Jesus, spilling over into every part of life (discipleship).

Here are a few other "core values"...

  • Core Values = Things we want people to observe in the life of our church.  We hope people pick up on these, not because they are on a bulletin board, or a website, or even a vision statement, but because they are obvious in how we do things.
  • Genuine in Worship:  We believe worship is the natural expression of living for Christ during the week.
  • Relevant in Ministry:  We want to speak to the issues of everyday life with Biblical truth in clear and relevant ways.    
  • Authentic in Relationships:  We want to be people who are real, open, and honest so we can encourage and challenge one another.    
  • Sensitive to the Spirit:  We want to recognize and obey God's prompting through the Holy Spirit in our daily lives.
  • Passionate in Life:  We want to be followers of Jesus who are reaching, praying, giving, serving, and living with passion daily.


Our heart is to be a church where faith in Christ is an everyday thing, not just a Sunday thing!
