Values
Core convictions that anchor & advance the vision and mission of Immanuel.
You [Jesus] have the words of eternal life. (John 6:68)
Fundamentally, when we say that we value life-giving truth, we are saying that we value Jesus as our source of truth. He is ultimate reality.
A community from all cultures where Christ is King. (Revelation 7:9-10)
Heaven will be a place of unity amidst diversity–a community from all cultures where Christ is King. We long for our church to be a glimpse of heaven on earth right now.
Sacrificially loving others and living to reach the lost sheep of God. (Matthew 9:36-38)
We are commissioned to go out into the world proclaiming, healing, and making disciples. Jesus tangibly loved as he declared the good news. His ministry was both word and deed.
Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. (Matthew 6:10)
Jesus taught us to pray, “Your Kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” We believe that as we pray, God hears, He cares, and He responds.
Speaking the truth in love, let us grow in every way into him. (Ephesians 4:15)
God never intended for us to try to live the Christian life by ourselves. We need one another to increasingly grow into the image of Christ.
For from Him, and through Him, and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever. (Romans 11:33)
Following Jesus is not counterintuitive to our joy, it’s the pathway to it! We are a church passionate about the glory of God because we believe that this is what we were made for.
