Believe the gospel deeply enough to reject retaliation and embrace the blessings of suffering.

We are to neither rail against nor retreat from the world, but maintain a faithful presence in it.

The Church is built on Jesus, connected in Jesus, and united in Jesus. Therefore, we can only be committed to the flourishing of the Church!

The gospel gives us a joyful desire to give in support of gospel ministries.

Luke 11:37-42

1 Peter 2:1-7, CSB

God has worked in our past, is working in our present, and will keep working in our future. 

1 Peter 1:3-12

Our distinct relationship with God determines our distinct relationship with the world.

Authentic Christian living is an ongoing acknowledgment of one’s sinfulness, God's holiness, and Jesus' work on our behalf.

1 John 1:9 — 2:2

Open your heart before you open your mouth.

Give in such a way that not even you might know you gave.
