Metaphors & Convictions.
Image crystallizes communication. Art and poetry explode from the canvas of Scripture, our lives, our world. Metaphors marry our senses to our sensibilities. May these marry action to our awareness.
Core Values
Wind (Commission)
Mission is why the Church exists. The Church is a movement, not an institution. Every follower of Jesus is commissioned by God.
Water (Community)
Love is the context for all mission. The Church is relational, not programmatic. Every follower of Jesus is part of a larger community.
Wood (Connection)
Structure must always submit to Spirit. The Church is empowering, not controlling. Every follower of Jesus is called and connected uniquely to serve.
Fire (Communion)
Relevance to culture is not optional. The Church is incarnational, not esoteric. Every follower of Jesus celebrates communion with God.
Earth (Character)
Creativity is the natural result of spirituality. The Church is transforming, not conforming. Every follower of Jesus grows in Christ-like character.
