Since our core values are meaningless without points of real-life application, here are the associated practices we've adopted to help us embrace these values:
:: deepen the soul ::
attend a worship gathering | Hebrews 10:25 develop a loving heart | Mark 12:30-31 practice spiritual disciplines | Romans 12:1-2
:: find relationship ::
participate in a small group | Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 explore church partnership | Acts 2:42-47 preserve unity | Ephesians 4:1-3
:: join the mission ::
serve internally and externally | I Peter 4:10 build relationships of impact | Matthew 28:19-20 partner financially | Matthew 6:19-21
Though there are lots of passages throughout Scripture that would affirm these values and practices, we encourage you to take some time to look up the specific references we've listed. As you do, prayerfully consider how you're living out these values and practices in your own personal life.
