The wise men brought gifts to Jesus because gifts are a form of worship. The best gift we were ever given was a living Savior, and the best we can give as a worshipful response is ourselves.

Worship is not a wholly intellectual pursuit, but is also an emotional entreaty to the God we serve. Our worship , especially musical worship, engages our very soul into the presence of God.

When we worship, we sometimes lift our hands as a symbolic way of representing our emotions towards God. Our worship is for Him, not for ourselves, and this is one way in which we can express our adoration for our Savior.

The final of Pennington AG's Core Values is that anything is possible. We serve a God who is willing and able to do great miracles for His people. Even when we do not see the miracles we hope for, it is our job to trust that God is good through all things.

Finances are an important part of the Christian life. What you put money into reveals what you care about. God calls us to give to furthering His Kingdom and helping those in need.

Sometimes there is a disconnect between having the joy of God and doing His work. The truth is, we need both. We must strive to do ministry with excellence, and to enjoy the experience of living in Christ.

The mission is to lead people to Jesus, and it is something that all believers need to work together to accomplish. We all have different talents, environments, and passions, but must be united in our goals.

Community is important because life is not meant to be lived alone. We are called to being with others and to share our lives with theirs. Rather than being distracted by things and tasks, we should focus on the love that God has for each of His children.

The second Core Value of Pennington AG is Faith Through Us. Out of our relationship with Jesus is borne a faith that works to improve and yield fruit in the world around us.

Our first Core Value is "Jesus In Us". We believe that Jesus is accessible, that we can have a real relationship with Him, and that He is a big and powerful God.
