Anointed Teaching: We believe that anointed teaching is the catalyst for transformation in individuals lives and for the formation of Christ-centred families. This includes the concept for teaching for life change, encouraging obedience to the Scriptures, not knowledge alone (James 1:22). Disciple-making: We believe the church is called to make disciples
because lost people matter to God. This includes the concept of World
mission support and targeting ministry to those outside the church Cultural relevance: We believe that the church should be culturally relevant while remaining doctrinally pure. This includes the use of music, the arts, and new methodology (1 Cor 9:19-23). Worship: We believe that personal and corporate worship is vital to
the health of every Christian. This includes the spiritual disciplines
of personal prayer and Bible study, thus building a dynamic personal Spirit-filled life: We believe that every Christian should be Spirit-filled
and fully committed to Christ. This includes commitment to a high moral-ethical
standard, personal integrity, holiness and wholeness Godly leadership: We believe the church is to be led by godly, gifted leaders who empower people for ministry. This includes pastoral leadership who can help equip others, according to their spiritual gifts, to serve God with fulfillment and fruitfulness (Ephesians 4:11b,12). Biblical community: We believe in biblical community because care, life change, spiritual growth, and authentic relationships are experienced in fellowship and cell groups. This includes the concept of care and ministry groups (Acts 2:42-47). Unified community: We believe that the church should be a loving, intergenerational,
unified community of mutually accountable servants of Christ. This includes
the concept of affirmation, confrontation, Resource management: We believe in the management of personal and church resources are to be guided by biblical principles. This includes the concept of stewardship of time, money, and abilities (2 Corinthians 8:20-21). Excellence in service: We believe that excellence honours God, therefore we will give Him our best. This includes the concept of evolution and improvement (1 Corinthians 3:13).
