Beliefs are not worth much unless they are translated into actions. Based on what the Bible teaches, we feel very strongly about the following twelve values:
P Personal Integrity
13You are like salt for everyone on earth. But if salt no longer tastes like salt, how can it make food salty? All it is good for is to be thrown out and walked on. 14You are like light for the whole world. A city built on top of a hill cannot be hidden, 15and no one would light a lamp and put it under a clay pot. A lamp is placed on a lampstand, where it can give light to everyone in the house. 16Make your light shine, so that others will see the good that you do and will praise your Father in heaven. Matthew 5:13-16.
R Reproducing Spiritual Life.
2You have often heard me teach. Now I want you to tell these same things to followers who can be trusted to tell others. 2 Timothy 2:2
A Authority of Scripture
15Since childhood, you have known the Holy Scriptures that are able to make you wise enough to have faith in Christ Jesus and be saved. 2 Timothy 3:15
I Intimacy With God
12Now I tell you to love each other, as I have loved you. 13The greatest way to show love for friends is to die for them. 14And you are my friends, if you obey me. 15Servants don't know what their master is doing, and so I don't speak to you as my servants. I speak to you as my friends, and I have told you everything that my Father has told me. John 15:12-15
S Servanthood
15I have set the example, and you should do for each other exactly what I have done for you. John 13:15
E Excellence
The quality of each person's work will be seen when the Day of Christ exposes it. 1 Corinthians 3:13 (GN)
C Commitment
First they gave themselves to the Lord; and then, by God's will they gave themselves to us as well. 2 Corinthians 8:5 (GN)
H Heart For the Lost
7Jesus said, "In the same way there is more happiness in heaven because of one sinner who turns to God than over ninety-nine good people who don't need to." Luke 15:7
A Authenticity
Our lives in this world, and especially our relations with you, have been ruled by God-given frankness and sincerity. 2 Corinthians 1:12 (GN)
11Friends in Corinth, we are telling the truth when we say that there is room in our hearts for you. 2 Corinthians 6:11
P Prayer
6Don't worry about anything, but pray about everything. With thankful hearts offer up your prayers and requests to God. Philippians 4:6
E Everyone's Unique Giftedness
6God has also given each of us different gifts to use. If we can prophesy, we should do it according to the amount of faith we have. Romans 12:6
10Each of you has been blessed with one of God's many wonderful gifts to be used in the service of others. So use your gift well. 1 Peter 4:10
L Love For The People
34But I am giving you a new command. You must love each other, just as I have loved you. 35If you love each other, everyone will know that you are my disciples. John 13:34-35
