Vision:

Gather people together to activate their faith. We will worship together, be enlightened by anointed teachers, and be empowered by the Holy Spirit. We believe that God is stirring the hearts of many and that the bride of Christ is beginning to walk in a renewed understanding of what God's love and power is, and how to display this love and power to whomever we meet.

Encounter:

We believe that when you experience the presence of the Creator it changes your life. An encounter will ignite a passion in your heart to share and show the love you've experienced with someone else. An encounter is when you open your heart and mind and ask God to invade them. The words from God spoke creation into existence; imagine what a touch from God can do to a person's life and the impact that life can have upon this world. Transformed people can transform cities. Transformed cities can transform states. And transformed states can transform nations.

Equip:

Salvation is not something you work for, it's a gift. Our work is to go into the world and display the love of Jesus. God gave us Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors, and Teachers for equipping of the saints for the work we are to do (Eph. 5:11-22). Work is not always easy and it requires effort. Armies don't go into battle unless they are prepared. Likewise; we believe that we should prepare ourselves and others with truth. Jesus and his words are Spirit and life. Jesus also said the Spirit is truth. If we believe that what we believe is real, then our equipping should be centered on the words of Jesus and the Holy Spirit of truth.

Empower:

We are disciples of Jesus. Jesus told his disciples that when they received power from the Holy Spirit, then they would be his witness to the ends of the world (Acts 1:8). When (it's going to happen) they receive power, then (after power is received) they would be witnesses. We must believe that God is, God was, and God will be; and that the same resurrection power that brought Jesus to life is alive and working today (Ephesians 1).If faith is being sure of what we hope for, then we can be sure that our hope is reality. It is reality that God wants to bring healing and restoration to your family, friends, city, state, and nation. It is also a reality that God works through people. The Holy Spirit is the personality of God, and that personality will empower you to display the natural characteristics of God's nature.

Obey:

We must be doers of the word and not just hearers. Obedience is always giving the answer of 'yes' to God without hesitation or compromise. We were called to do more than follow principles and doctrine. We must open our hearts to the prompting of the Holy Spirit and freely give others that which we have freely received.
