Gospel Fluency

May we never outgrow the wonder of God’s redeeming grace that saves and transforms us! We want to be people who understand the message of the gospel and its implications for every aspect of life.

Kingdom Diversity

We desire to be a faith family that reflects the beauty, creativity, and wisdom of God in how He has gathered people from every ethnicity and socioeconomic background to proclaim His glory. We hope to be a multigenerational, multicultural church family that gives the surrounding world a glimpse of what heaven will be like (Revelation 7:9). We cannot manufacture this type of compelling community in our own power therefore, it is a unity in diversity that we pray for and humbly and sacrificially pursue.

Deep Discipleship

We intentionally help others follow Jesus as we follow Jesus. That is the heart of discipleship. We work towards a culture in which the whole church discipling the whole church is normal. Gospel-empowered humility and transparency are what we’re after as we share our lives with others. We don’t hide behind a mask and pretend we have it all together. We’re all broken sinners ministering to other broken sinners in need of God’s mercy and grace. Discipleship is not a program or a curriculum it’s a lifestyle of intentional love, hospitality, counsel, and service, joyfully bearing one another burdens. We are a family, and as a family, we actively take responsibility for one another by helping every member mature in Christ.

Intentional Simplicity

We love and support people, not programs. We are not a programmatic church with a state-of-the-art worship experience. We certainly value God-glorifying excellence in all we do. However, we intentionally elevate a culture of discipling, hospitality, and evangelism rather than a cluster of church programs. Our leaders and members are seeking to produce disciples, not religious consumers. Our faith family will certainly benefit from some programs in our church life, but they will always be secondary to and in support of the overall culture of discipleship we’re striving to build and maintain. Members taking personal responsibility to serve, love, and disciple one another will always take priority.

Great Commission Urgency

We exist to glorify God by fulfilling the Great Commission, making disciples both locally and globally. God is the original missionary gathering a people for his glory from every tribe, tongue, and nation through the gospel of Jesus Christ. We join God in His plan of redemption. With God’s help, we will share the gospel in our local communities, start new churches locally, help revitalize churches, and partner with others to start gospel-preaching churches in other countries. This means that we will be willing to joyfully send members of our faith family to do gospel ministry.

Word-Centered Ministry

Everything we do is centered around God’s sufficient, authoritative, and inspired word. We value the public ministry of the word through expositional preaching. This means that in our preaching, we expose God’s word to God’s people. The main point of the text is the main point of our sermons. Like the apostle Paul, we seek to give our people the full counsel of God by preaching verse by verse through books of the Bible (Acts 20:27). Though there is a place for topical sermons, the main diet of Redeemer is expositionally working through books of the Bible. The Scriptures are foundational to our preaching, teaching, doctrine, ecclesiology, and evangelism.

 We also value the personal ministry of the word by way of Christ-centered biblical counseling and discipling relationships. We believe that the Bible provides sufficient guidance and instruction for all of the issues of faith and life. Through the personal ministry of the Word, we seek to help people apply the truths of Scripture to their lives. We also believe that through the Spirit, God empowers his Word to bear fruit in people's lives for their good and for His glory.
