1. A Community that Embraces Relationship
To know and be known. This may be our deepest human need. What else is there besides relating to others, walking through struggles and triumphs together? Nothing can be more fulfilling than bringing someone else along on your life journey.

2. A Community that Prioritizes Grace and Love
We are a people transformed by the grace and love of Jesus. He made it safe for people to come to him just as they were, so too, we strive to avoid judgment of others, we relationally pursue others without agenda, and seek to serve vs. seek to be served.

3. A Community Committed to Bringing the Kingdom "Here and Now"
We often find ourselves sighing at the world's greatest needs and despairing over all that is wrong with humanity. The greatest tragedy is within ourselves--our own detachment from the affairs of the human race. We have a knowledge of general events, but that is the extent of our involvement. Here, our self-centeredness is shattered, our worldviews stretched, and our perspectives expanded.

4. A Community of Authentic Worshippers
Our inner satisfaction is never quenched with anything less than Jesus. Though we may be drawn to fill our lives with things that bring pseudo satisfaction, we strive forward to find completeness in Him alone. Our needs to receive in worship of Jesus are secondary to Jesus desire to receive our praise.
