- We honor the past - we don’t live in it.
- We live in the present with our eyes on the future.
- We see past events - successes and failures - as stepping-stones not stop signs.
- We pursue learning in order to be transformed, not learning in order to know.
- We are people of engagement not observation.
- We focus on what could be, not on what is or has been.
- We are not limited to the four walls of our church building. Our influence is not restricted by location - Not even the nations are out of bounds.
- We are more concerned about how many we send out into the world than how many we convince to come into the building. This building is meant to be filled and it will be - but it will not be the measure of who we are or the measure of our effectiveness.
- We raise up world changers - not tour guides. We train commandos, not committees.
- We are a people of our destiny, not of our history.
