Core Values
Faith
Our intimate relationship with Him defines our faith and belief in God. He is as near to us as our next breath of air. Our belief in Jesus is rooted above all religious constructions of the Christian faith and is not dependent on the day’s trend. The sources that govern our relationship with God are relational prayer and the practice of Lectio Divina in both its spiritual and intellectual elements. In ministering to others in the Christian community, we will model our faith and belief values in teaching disciples to focus on building an authentic relationship with God as the prize instead of the performance of works to receive Kingdom rewards. The pursuit of the relationship will lead to works that release Kingdom rewards. The critical scripture reflected on our faith value is Exodus 33:11, “And the LORD spake unto Moses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend. And he turned again into the camp: but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, departed not out of the tabernacle.” (KJV).
The Great Commandments
As believers in Jesus Christ, we are called to comply with the laws of the New Covenant. Old Covenant laws unveiled the heart of God’s intended result for humankind: we learn to love God and each other. Our values guide us to trust the Lord with all aspects of our lives, even when it’s beyond our comprehension: we give Him our heart. In addition, we focus our strength on activities that allow us to participate in the world in a manner that maintains Godly integrity. Furthermore, in cooperation with the Holy Spirit, we submit our mind to the daily washing of the Word to encourage transformative thinking that reflects Christ’s image. Walking in continuous fellowship with the Triune God (prayer) will preserve the condition of our soul. Finally, in treating others, we commit our behavior to model the heart of Jesus Christ in servant-leadership, considering the welfare of others in addition to our own. The guiding scripture we value in living these commands is John 14:15, “If ye love me, keep my commandments” (KJV).
Personal Integrity/Moral Values
Our integrity is grounded in the value of our word connected to our actions that support it. Both aspects must align when we are in the presence of others and when we are only with God (we are never alone). It’s in our value to showcase the same people we are behind the scenes on any platform. Presenting an authentic version of who we are (the good and the areas in need of improvement) is vital in promoting our integrity: we are what you see. Our moral values are governed not by what we (or the world) define as right or wrong but strictly by the written Word defined by Jesus Christ. Jesus has the final say regardless of our thoughts on any matter. As the sole author (Jesus) over creation, what He says should be considered moral and right. We hold to this value as supported by Matthew 28:18-20, “And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen” (KJV).
Relationships
Relationships are the centerpiece of God’s creation on earth. Adam was given a helpmate (Eve) because God declared it was not good for a man to be alone. God exists in the form of the Trinity, where all are one, act as one, and participate in a continuous flow of communion. But offense in the Church community is inevitable because the world remains in a fallen state. Conflict resolution values we intend to embrace will be to acknowledge and clear our side of the offense; choosing to clear our side of the conflict fosters a clear conscience. We will submit the matter to the care of God to resolve if mutual agreement cannot be obtained. To help prevent resentment and unforgiveness from fostering after an unresolved matter, we will speak our emotions to Jesus in a quiet place and rest in Him to heal wounds. The governing scripture we embrace in staying true to this value is Matthew 6:14-15, “For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses” (KJV).
Family
A community of believers is established when two or three disciples come together in the name of Jesus Christ. The most fundamental element of a Christian community exists within a core family unit. Our values emphasize that family care and development must be prioritized in ministry. Ministering effectively to those outside the family unit must exist as a reflection of the work already in motion within one’s household. This value is captured well in 1 Timothy 3:4-5, “One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)” (KJV).
The Work of Ministry
Our core value regarding work ethic in ministry promotes doing the right thing for the right reason. Our work ethic in ministry must be driven by our sincere desire to establish the will of God (not man’s) on earth: Prepare a people for the return of Jesus Christ. Jesus departed the world with a promise that He would come again and receive a pure bride ready to inherit a place prepared for them. Our work must be weighed against one specific standard: does the end result draw disciples closer to Christ or to sin? The hallmark scripture that we lean on in guiding proper work ethic is Colossians 3:23-24, “And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ” (KJV).
The Call to Mission
Before Jesus departed from earth, He gave the final mandate for all disciples to obey. Christians are called to the mission field to make more disciples. Our values bring to the forefront that the whole world is the mission field; it begins within our homes, witnessing to loved ones who have yet to receive Jesus Christ as Lord. Our core ministry will set Matthew 28 as the primary reason for its function. Programs developed will lead to the truth of salvation and foster an environment that promotes continued commitment to obeying God’s commands. The core scripture that centers our value on the Great Commission is Matthew 28:18-20, “And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen” (KJV).
Educational
The continued pursuit of Christian education is vital for spiritual growth and proper health. Our increased knowledge of God and His requirements enable spiritual formation through image conformity (to Christ). In the garden, humankind was created after the image and likeness of the Triune God. Therefore, our principal existence reflects our Creator’s core nature and characteristics. When we dedicate time to expanding the understanding of God in our lives, we participate in worship as we seek to know Him as a friend. Genesis 1:26-27 serves as a banner in reminding us of our intended purpose, “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them” (KJV).
Professional Ethics in Ministry
As practitioners taking on the profession of spiritual formation, it is crucial to live a life that reflects the Bible, not by word alone; our actions must also tell the story. We maintain our intimate relationship with Jesus in privacy but live a life that agrees with our personal convictions and values. The lifestyle of discipleship should be seen as a Christian profession, and as professionals, we train to be subject matter experts. There is a business dynamic in how we live as believers, but the charter, mission, and vision statement are strictly managed by our CEO (Jesus Christ). Our pursuit of spiritual excellence in Jesus Christ fashions us into vessels of gold and silver for the Master’s use. Key scriptural references we lean towards in endorsement are Luke 2:49 (“And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father’s business?” (KJV)), John 9:4 (“I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.” (KJV)), and 2 Timothy 2:20-21 (“But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the Master’s use, and prepared unto every good work” (KJV)).
