As followers of Jesus Christ, we are called to a life of purpose, one focused on building God’s Kingdom by making disciples of all nations (Matthew 28:19-20).

Biblical Leadership Characteristics

In our journey of faith, we firmly uphold the belief that every Christian is uniquely gifted and purposefully called. Guided by the words of Peter, who affirms that we are “a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for His own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light” (1 Peter 2:9, ESV), we affirm that no believer stands as a mere observer. Rather, each one of us possesses a vital role, a place to contribute and shine, regardless of the platform.  Read More
