Restoring the glory of God to the church and filling the world with the knowledge of Him
Our Values
These are traits or qualities that are not just worthwhile; they represent our highest priorities; deeply held beliefs; and core, fundamental driving forces. They are the heart of what our church and team stand for in the world.

We encounter God daily in the glory of Jesus; hungering for His voice, thirsting for His presence, and praying in such a way as to invade earth with the breakthrough of heaven.
2 Cor 3:18 And we all, with unveiled face, continually seeing as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are progressively being transformed into His image from [one degree of] glory to [even more] glory, which comes from the Lord, [who is] the Spirit. AMP
Heb 1:3 The Son is the radiance and only expression of the glory of [our awesome] God [reflecting God’s Shekinah glory, the Light-being, the brilliant light of the divine], and the exact representation and perfect imprint of His [Father’s] essence… AMP

Faith is the lifeblood of all that we do; we feed it fervently, speak it boldly and live it courageously.
2 Cor 4.13 And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “I believed and therefore I spoke,” we also believe and therefore speak.
Mark 10:27 But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.” NKJV

We keep the gospel of grace at the centre of all we do; it is the only way to see the real Jesus.
Gal 1:6-8 I am amazed how quickly you are deserting the One who called you by the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel— 7which is not even a gospel… 8But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be under a curse!
2 Corinthians 11:3–4 But I fear that somehow your pure and undivided devotion to Christ will be corrupted, just as Eve was deceived by the cunning ways of the serpent. 4 You happily put up with whatever anyone tells you, even if they preach a different Jesus than the one we preach, or a different kind of Spirit than the one you received, or a different kind of gospel than the one you believed. NLT

We don’t pursue our truth but we are taught and liberated by The Truth.
John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. NKJV
John 1:17 For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

Each of us are not a prize to be won but a diamond to be discovered. Driven by compassion; we restore the broken, seek out the marginalised, honour the despised, and love the “unlovable”.
Deut 7:6 “For you are a people holy to the Lord your God. The Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for his treasured possession
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
Mat 13:44 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field. 45“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking beautiful pearls, 46who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it.”

Instituted by marriage, and designed with a purpose, God has a vision for family to restore to His church and to the world.
Gen 2:24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.
Acts 10:2 He and all his family were devout and God-fearing; he gave generously to those in need and prayed to God regularly.

Children are treasures from heaven. We know them, love them, and protect them fiercely; raising them as world changers of today and leaders of tomorrow.
Mat 19:14 But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.”
Psalm 82:3-4 Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; uphold the rights of the afflicted and oppressed. Rescue the weak and needy; save them from the hand of the wicked
