Today begins a new series titled Better Together where we will explore the importance of gathering as a church body. The first five weeks will cover our church’s core values. The core values represent those things that we hold dear and the things that define us. They represent both who we are and what we strive to be. They are descriptive and aspirational. Today we begin with the primary value, the one that we hold nearest to our core: that all we do and all we are is rooted in the person and work of Christ.
