A Way of Life
Renewing our mind to think God's thoughts is critical to every believer. We believe that walking out Christ's life consists of....
Walking in Love
We set our hearts to love as He has loved us; this is His instructions to us. His love has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit, thus we can love as He has loved us. God’s love is patient, kind, is not jealous, does not brag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly and does not take into account a wrong suffered. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things and endures all things. God’s love in us never fails. It knows no fear, no defeat, no hatred, no prejudice…. and this is the love we are growing in and learning to exhibit in every situation of life.
John 14-17; Romans 5:5; 1 Corinthians 13:4-8;
Philippians 1:9,10
Walking In Faith
We walk by faith and not by sight; for the just shall walk by faith, and without faith, it is impossible to please God. In faith, we follow Abraham’s example, our father in father. He based his words and his actions on what God had promised, not on what his circumstances were or whether the situation seemed possible or not (he hoped against hope). This means we believe what God’s word says over our circumstances and situation and stand on that word until it comes to pass. All things are possible to those who believe.
Mark 9:23, 11:23; 2 Corinthians 5:7; Habakkuk 2:4; Romans 1:17; Galatians 3:11; Hebrews 10:38; Romans 4
Walking In The Spirit
We are to be Spirit-filled, Spirit-led, and Spirit fed; moving by the spirit of faith. We must realize we have been made alive (new creations) by the power of the Holy Spirit, created in God’s image and likeness to walk like Hw would walk, speak what He would speak, think like He thinks, and do what He would do. When we walk, yielded to the Holy Spirit, we will not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
Luke 24:49; Acts 1:8; Romans 8:14; John 14:26; 2 Corinthians 4:13, 5:17; Genesis 1:26; 1 John 4:1-17; 1 Corinthians 2:16; Galatians 5:16-25; John 1:12; Romans 8:19
Walking In The Light of God's Word
God’s Word is God’s Will. In the beginning, was the Word of God (Jesus Christ). Creation came into existence by the Word and is upheld by the Word. The Bible, God’s Word, is our sure foundation. Faith comes by hearing the Word. In His Word, we find promises to us which are yes and amen in Jesus Christ. God’s Word guides, instructs, corrects, brings faith for salvation and for all of His provisions. We are to pray it, declare it and meditate on it day and night. It renews our minds and brings us a revelation of Him. God’s Word guides us down His path of life!

Psalms 119:105
Walking In Forgiveness
God made our heart for love, joy, peace, and wholeness. Unforgiveness can cause us to forget our original design and isolate ourselves from relationships around us. It inhibits God from working in our lives. God, who made our heart, has shown a way past the wounds of the past and asks us to return to His designed life and love - the path of freedom.
