Our
Philosophy of ministry provides ethical boundaries that will
guide our efforts. This reflects what
we value.
People
are more important than policy. Policies and procedures exist
to give support, guidelines and boundaries
to the people
and for the people. We will motivate through helping to get
people to do things for their own reasons, fulfilling goals
and fine-tuning
their own visions.
We
will walk in respect with others. We will clarify expectations.
We will love you enough to confront
you too. We will support
you.
- We
believe that a staff that prays together plays together.
- We
believe that a family that prays together, plays together
and stays together.
- We
believe that a church that prays and plays together will also
stay together.
- We
want to offer prayer support, pastoral guidance and ministry
through the Word of God. We trust the Holy Spirit
on the inside
of you.
Every
church has a philosophy of ministry. That philosophy predetermines
how you will receive ministry. It predetermines how leadership
will respond to your specific needs. We do not feel it is our
job to make you right. We believe that Jesus makes you right (righteous).
However, we do feel that it is our job to encourage you to
believe
and walk in that righteousness.
You
will only walk in your righteousness to the degree that you
have been made whole by the love of
God. When you have
wholeness,
there is a Bible based sense of self-worth that empowers
you. Wholeness brings about the participation in your new identity
in Jesus. We
want you to believe the truth about who you are in Jesus.
While
our church has a vision, we do not ask you to give up your
vision for the sake of ours. We want you to keep
your
vision and
have your own sense of purpose in the Kingdom of God.
1.
We see one of the greatest weaknesses of the traditional
church has been the dis-empowering of the people. Therefore,
we say that
our vision is to help you become what you desire to be
and to become all that you can be in God.
2.
Positive internal motivation through relationship with Jesus
and the
knowledge of His Word will encourage
you
to achieve
your goals and walk in victory. |
