1. We are family
Church is more than an association of like-minded people. Church is home. Like a good family, we love each other, are friendly, stick together and forgive each other. Everyone is warmly welcome here.
2. Positive at heart
We always see the good! We talk about the good! We encourage each other, build each other up, and cheer each other on. Church is meant to be fun. God sees the glass as half full!
3. We are courageous
We live with the expectation that God is actively at work and that we live out of His supernatural power. We trust God for great things! We speak clearly and boldly about why we believe in God and who He is. We're upfront and unafraid to challenge and inspire.
4. Only the best - no leftovers
For God and for people, only the best is good enough! We don‘t just give what‘s left over – we love to give our very best!
5. Better together
Everything is better when we do it together! We love teams, families, worship services, small groups and friends! We want to encourage each other not to stay where we are, but to take the next steps forward.
6. What you see is what you get
Nobody is perfect, but honesty and openness are crucial. We don't need actors - but normal, authentic people.
7. Culture of honor
We honor and value every person, regardless of their background, views or achievements. Unconditionally and without expecting anything in return. We give honor to whom honor is due.
8. Passion drives us
We love God, people, and church! Out of this passion, we are enthusiastic in worship, motivated in serving, and generous with one another.
9. We do not stand still
God has established multiplication as a foundational principle in His creation. We are intentional and proactive in developing and multiplying Christians, staff, leaders, small groups, worship services, campuses and churches.
