inward

The inward journey of transformation starts with authenticity. We want to be fully 

integrated people - mind, body and soul offered together to God. We embrace the 

salvation Jesus offers as the only hope for healing of our relationships with God, each 

other and ourselves. We are constantly exploring, questioning, and wrestling with 

new and creative ways to live out and communicate the teachings of Jesus. 

[response] we covenant to go inward because we want to be whole people. 

outward

The visible expression of our journey needs to be evident in our culture. We are called 

to be a compelling force for good in the world, and we believe that we are at our best 

when we serve, sacrifice, love and care about the things God cares about. 

[response] we covenant to go outward because Jesus' call is to serve the world.

together

The journey together begins by valuing the image of God in all people. We believe

that we were created to live deeply with one another, carrying each other's burdens,

sharing our possessions, to pray and confess our sins to each other, to suffer and celebrate together. It's in these honest, loving relationships that 

God transforms us an truth becomes a reality. 

[response] we covenant to go withward because we were made to live in community.
