Values
“A Jesus community helping students find their way back to God”
Belonging
We believe today’s students are more concerned with belonging than believing. We desire to be a community of people who can come just as we are, who are not afraid to be ourselves and let ourselves be known. We believe that when people see followers of Jesus who are real and authentic, they will see a Jesus who is real and authentic.
Story
We have entered into this unfolding narrative that is God’s Word. A story of God and His people, a story of a Father who relentlessly pursues His people from beginning to end, seeking to make us a part of this story by bringing His family back together. It is a story which must overwhelm every aspect of our lives. It is a story that seeks to connect us back to our Creator.
Restoration
We believe that we are a flawed, sinful people. We also believe that God, through Jesus, desperately wants to restore us to Him. God wants to take us with all of our flaws and brokenness and out the pieces back together. Restoration through Jesus is more than a one-time transaction; it’s a way of living. It is an ongoing, never-ending restoring of our souls, our lives and the world in which we live.
Revolution
We believe that when we enter into the story of God it will change the way we see our lives and the world around us. It will cause us to no longer be able to see the world in the same way. We also believe that God changes the way we act. We believe that entering into God’s story causes us to bring revolution to the world around us. It causes us to strive to bring God’s hope and restoration into this world.
Creativity
In this community, beauty, art and imagination are valued, used and understood as coming from the Creator. We are, in truth, created to be creators. We believe God is calling us all to lifelong creative, artistic and scientific pursuits. We are to mirror God’s creativity.
