Guiding Principles

"Save, Reach, Teach and Grow"

Outreach, Social Justice, Truth, Growth in Christ and Humble Servant Living

1. We will make it our mission, by design, to create Outreach opportunities to save the lost, to reach the unchurched and to positively affect the lives of others in this broken world through events, community development and evangelical missions in everything we do, sowing seeds of victory and truth.
   1. He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. (Mark 16:15 NIV)
2. We will make it our mission, by design, to support the oppressed, the widow and the downtrodden, as approved biblically, and fight for their deliverance from oppression in everything we do.
   1. This is what the Lord says: Do what is just and right. Rescue from the hand of the oppressor the one who has been robbed. Do no wrong or violence to the foreigner, the fatherless or the widow, and do not shed innocent blood in this place. (Jeremiah 22:3 NIV)
3. We will make it our mission, by design, to speak truth with unequivocal love and boldness in everything we do.
   1. Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as God’s slaves. (1 Peter 2:16 NIV)
   2. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.” (Mark 12:30-31 NIV)
   3. So if the old way, which has been replaced, was glorious, how much more glorious is the new, which remains forever! Since this new way gives us such confidence, we can be very bold. (2 Corinthians 3:11-12 NLT)
4. We will make it our mission, by design, to continuously grow in Christ while building our relationship with Him as the trinity--God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit--in everything we do so that we may know Him and He may know us.
   1. “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’ (Matthew 7:21-23 NIV)
5. We will make it our mission, by design, to be humble servants in everything we do.
   1. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up. (James 4:10 NIV)
   2. Indeed there are those who are last who will be first, and first who will be last.” (Luke 13:30 NIV)
