Our Culture Values

-Hebrews 11:6
LOVE

EXCELLENCE
“But as you excel in everything in faith, in speech, in knowledge, and in all eagerness and in the love from us that is in you make sure that you excel in this act of kindness too.” -2 Corinthians 8:7
“Then this Daniel became distinguished above all the other presidents and satraps, because an excellent spirit was in him. And the king planned to set him over the whole kingdom.” -Daniel 6:3
UNITY
“How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity! It is like precious oil poured on the head, running down on the beard, running down on Aaron’s beard, down on the collar of his robe. It is as if the dew of Hermon were falling on Mount Zion. For there the Lord bestows his blessing, even life forevermore.” -Psalm 133:1-3
GENEROSITY
“Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys.” -Luke 12:33

-1 Peter 5:5
SERVING
“Just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
