Core Values
| We value THE
PURSUIT OF GOD. We are hungry to know
God's presence, hear His voice and follow hard after Him. (Psalm 63:1-4)
We value CHRISTLIKENESS. We desire that through the power of the Holy Spirit, Jesus' love, mercy, grace, truth, purity, power, and integrity would shine through all that we are and do. (Ephesians 5:1-2) We value BEING SPIRIT-LED. We honor Jesus as our Head and the Holy Spirit as our Counselor. We seek to be responsive to the Holy Spirit in life and ministry. (Galatians 5:5; Romans 8:14) We value PRAYER. We believe that prayer is essential, because it is our primary means of communion with God, and because it is God's primary means of accomplishing His purposes in the world. (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18; Philippians 4:6) We value DISCIPLESHIP. We aim first to grow as disciples of Christ ourselves and then to make disciples of others. (Matthew 28:18-20) We value THE KINGDOM OF GOD. We aim to move in the signs of the present fulfillment of the kingdom, invoking the Spirit's powerful presence, ministering through the Spirit's gifts, and seeing God heal and work wonders. (Luke 4:42-43; Matthew 24:14) We value THE MERCY OF GOD. We believe that mercy is fundamental to all that God does in salvation. We, therefore, aim to extend mercy to one another and to all to whom we minister. (Colossians 3:12-14) We value INTEGRITY. It is important for us to speak the truth, deal honestly, and live uprightly. (Ephesians 4:15) We value SERVANT LEADERSHIP. We believe that Christ has put significant leadership authority in the hands of the Pastors. We aim to exercise all authority with humility, selflessness, grace, care for the sheep, and a sincere desire to build up the Body of Christ. (Mark 10:37, 44-45) We value THE INDIVIDUAL, single or married, old or young, and we want to enable and support mature relationships and family growth. (Romans 12:9,10) We value UNITY. We are convinced that all who belong to Christ are one in His Body, the Church. We aim to maintain unity by honoring all who call on Jesus' name and by seeking reconciliation with all parts of the Church. (John 17:20-23) We value COLLEGIATE RELATIONSHIPS. We are honored by every person whom God brings into fellowship at Trinity Vineyard. We aim to work together to build Trinity Vineyard through maintaining mutual respect, open communication, determined cooperation, and believing and speaking the best about each other. (I Corinthians 13:4-7) We value REALITY. We aim to walk in the Spirit and see real supernatural works of God. We aim also to function on the natural plane based on God's leading in conjunction with excellent, relational thinking. (1 John 2:6; James 1:5) We value SIMPLICITY. We wish to do nothing for "religious effect" but rather to operate in natural low-key, non-hype patterns. We desire to do the ministry of Christ with joy. (Philippians 4:4) We value being CULTURE CURRENT. We aim to develop an atmosphere of ease, and to speak, act, and dress in ways in which our culture can respond positively. (I Corinthians 9:19-23) |
