Growing in Community

• Because of both the universal longing within for community and the intrinsic
  isolation and loneliness of our culture, we will pursue creative and intentional
  avenues for cultivating deep and genuine relationships and fellowship.
  
  
• Taking seriously our Lord’s call to love one another, we are committed to biblical
  peacemaking in response to conflict.
  
  
• Knowing a church and a community are ultimately only as strong as the family, we
  will seek to both build up marriages and train in parenting.
  
  
• We will labor together to train our children as heirs of the covenant with a biblical
  worldview applied towards all of life.
  
  
• Balancing both the authority of the elders and the giftedness of the laity, we will
  utilize a team ministry philosophy – delegating key decisions for the life and
  ministry of the church while maintaining oversight by the shepherds of the church.
