In an effort to share who we are, the Vineyard Christian Fellowship offers the following core values and distinctives that define us
Pursuing His Presence - The presence of God is our highest priority and the prevailing force behind our practices. In His presence we:
- Come to experience His love
- Encounter Him through worship and intimacy
- Understand the deepest cries of our hearts are heard and met
- Are unwilling to say "far enough"
Living in Community - Fellowshipping with the Father leads us to loving His Family and unifying with the Body of Christ at large. Living in community is demonstrated by:
- Covenant love in a culture of honor
- Valuing everyone for who they are in Christ and not for what they do
- Realizing a genuine and authentic need for one another
- Equipping the saints to do the work of the ministry
- All of us being empowered by the Word and Spirit
Expanding the Kingdom - The Presence of God and Living in Community naturally translate into our partnership with Him in expanding the Kingdom. Each one of us partners with Him to:
- Draw people out of the kingdom of darkness and into His glorious Kingdom
- Receive His love, power and authority, and give it away in word and deed
- Expand the rule and reign of King Jesus to the ends of the earth
- Seek first His Kingdom and pray, "Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven"
In Pursuing His Presence we experience His love;
In Living in Community we practice His love;
In Expanding the Kingdom we demonstrate his love.
In Living in Community we practice His love;
In Expanding the Kingdom we demonstrate his love.
