1.We are an unattractional church that is the body of Christ, a living organism, not defined by the building that it inhabits. A church that meets under a bridge, in a park, or a house. A church that is using resources to build up the Kingdom, feed the hungry, clothe the naked, give water to the thirsty, and the spread the Good News to anyone that will sit still long enough to listen.
2. We are a church that is made up of people of all colors and races. A church that has a leadership team that will be, as the Lord leads, as multicultural as the congregation. Our goal is to raise leaders of all races and socioeconomic backgrounds for the furtherment of the Kingdom. 3. We are a church that ministers to the whole person. Body, mind and spirit. This will be accomplished through prayer, discipleship, and evangelism. The three pillars are the core of who we are and what we do.
4. This is a place for the ones that need it the most and the ones that think they need it the least. A place where every man, woman, and child is welcome as they are and where they are in life. No matter the color of their skin, the size of their checkbook or level of education, everyone is welcome and loved. Our call is to be church to the unchurched to those that have slipped through the cracks and out the backdoor.
5. We are a church that disciples through Small Groups and through our everyday ministry. We believe in teaching God’s Word and then applying it in the real world through on the job training (ministry).
6. We are a church that is truly come as you are. We do not believe in church clothes. Just wear what you got. Everyone has kingdom value and everything that we do is centered around that concept.
7. We are a church that is financially able to give 50%-65% or more of its budget to help the poor and the lost locally, nationally and internationally. A church of the least of these with a passion to help the least of these. A church that can be an outreach and discipleship tool for local churches and that will give local pastors opportunities for their congregations to get their hands dirty and minister to the least of these. A church that can be recreated and planted wherever people can gather. Hundreds of buildingless churches fulfilling the great commission and being the church. Meeting the needs of people’s mind body and spirit in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and the uttermost parts of the earth.
