Discovering Our Values:
Because we Have a Desire to Passionately Serve God, we Value:
Living a Life of Repentance
“Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord.”
Acts 3:19
So…
Daily ask God to search your heart and
confess freely your sin by turning away from it. Walking in Intimacy with God
"So let us know, let us press o
n to know the LORD. His going forth is as certain as the dawn; And He will come to us like the rain, Like the spring rain watering the earth." Hosea 6:3
So…
Spend time reading God’s Word and
Listening to the Holy Spirit
Excellence in Everything
“And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus.”
Colossians 3:17
So…
In every act of service ask,
“Is this the best I can do?”
Because we Have a Desire to Stand Together we Value:
Walking in Unity
“Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.”
Ephesians 4:3
So…
Learn to work together and
Serve those God has put into your life. Celebrating our Diversity
"But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift." Ephesians 4:7
So…
Learn to put up with each other, and
see the value in each member of God’s family
Because we Have a Desire to Love a Hurting World we Value:
People Matter to God
“Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Does he not leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it?”
Luke 4:18-19
So…
Be kind and gracious to every person
You see. Sacrificial Giving
"Out of the most severe trial, their overflowing joy and their extreme poverty welled up in rich generosity. For I testify that they gave as much as they were able, and even beyond their ability."
2 Corinthians 8:2-3
So…
Tithe not just your money, but your time, talents
and gifts for those outside the family of God.
