Adam continues our Cultural Values series as we take a look at what it means to be 'Family.'

By faith in Jesus, we are adopted into the family of God. At Hope we love as he loves us. We see the best in one another and truly value our differences, relentlessly loving one another through the ups and downs of life. Wherever you’re at, you’re welcome in the family.

Pete kicks off with our first Cultural Value - God First.

God First, in Everything, with Everything

He loved us first. Now he is first for us. We want him to be first in our hearts as we worship, first in our priorities as we make decisions, and first in our lives as we follow Jesus. Hope Church is all about Him. We live for Him and to reveal Him to the world around us.
