We continually ask: How does the Gospel apply to this? 

The good news both saves us — and shapes us. In every season, Jesus’ death and resurrection hold us steady, lift us up, and move us forward. His grace is the power and pulse of our life together 

• Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:1–4; Romans 1:16

We train in grace to walk by faith — preaching what we practice

Our rhythms of prayer, Scripture, and service put us in position for God to change our lives. Every practice is an invitation to lean on the Spirit, to be reshaped by grace, and to become people who carry the hope of Christ into the world.

• Scripture: John 15:4–5; Romans 12:2

We open our lives because Christ opened His to us.

Hospitality is the gospel with open hands. Through kindness to strangers and love for enemies, we mirror the God who welcomed us when we were far off. Our homes, time, and presence become sacred spaces of belonging— where friends become family.

• Scripture: Romans 12:13; Luke 14:12–14

We are the church, and we carry the mission, together 

Church is a family to belong to and a mission to live out. We are called to show up, lean in, and offer our gifts so that together we become the living body of Christ in the world.

• Scripture: Nehemiah 4:6; Ephesians 4:11–13

We work from rest, not for rest.

In Sabbath and stillness we remember we are held, not driven. We lay down our hurry, breathe in God’s delight, and let Him renew us so we can live faithfully in His strength.

• Scripture: Exodus 20:8–11; Matthew 11:28–30

We reflect God by creating with Him.

Through art, music, story, and imagination, we join the Creator in filling the world with signs of His glory. 

Scripture: Exodus 31:1–5; Philippians 4:8
