OUR FOUNDATION

THE FAMILY CULTURE

God the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit have brought us into their intimacy and family. From their love and wisdom, we build healthy families and communities. We believe that no one is created to walk alone and that people become most alive when planted in a healthy family.

We are adopted into God’s family, so we intentionally create family and community wherever we go.

We think like members healthy family members by doing what’s best for the whole environment and submitting to one another by not being selfish.

We purposefully grow our individual capacity to trust and be trusted in covenant relationships as we empower and confront one another to live out who we truly are.

We are loyal, and loyalty is demonstrated most radically when people fail. We don’t punish and abandon them to save face or convince the world that we hate sin, but work to see them restored.

THE KINGDOM LIFESTYLE

INTIMACY

Whoever is joined with the Lord is one with Him in the spirit.

Face to face, unbroken knowing. God knows all of me, wanting me to know all of Him. Everything I am, do and have stems directly from my relationship with God.

Therefore, what comes to mind when I think about God is the most defining thing about my life. Intimacy with God comes from being with Him, honoring  and valuing His Presence, making time for Him.

All of this and more goes into developing a deep relationship with my Father, with Jesus, and with the Holy Spirit.

IDENTITY

And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly places.

If what I believe about God is the most important thing to about me, then what I believe about myself is close second.

I am set free, I am set right, I am a new creation, I am dead to sin, I am son/daughter, I am a friend, I am a servant of the King, I am valued, I am clean, I am whole, I am loved,

I am raised up. I am what I am and I am complete in Christ. I am an overcoming. I am created anew in Christ for good works that He has for me. 

INHERITANCE

For it’s the Father’s Good pleasure to give us the Kingdom.

Inheritance is what we do with what we’ve been given. Grace. Walking in Kingdom power, demonstration, naturally supernatural.

Victorious living. Healthy relationships. Powerful and free people. Free on the inside so we can influence those around us. Filled with faith, hope, and joy.

We remember and experience that because we know that “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” (Hebrews 13:8)
