WHAT WE BELIEVE

CORE VALUES

 

#1 JESUS MATTERS

The purpose of Church in the Wild is to share the hope of Jesus. Jesus is our message. We are Jesus people, not religious people. Methods will come and go, yet our message will remain the same.

 

#3 DETAILS MATTER

We are going to always do the best with what we have. We’re on time, engaged, and prepared. We don’t do things halfway. If we’re gonna do it, it’s to the best of our ability. It’s our spirit.

#2 GRACE MATTERS

As a church, if Jesus is our focus then we believe to live as he lived. We should show grace on a regular basis. No matter the situation, show grace as Jesus did.

 

#4 YOU MATTER

Our heart is for all people. All people are loved by Jesus. We make no apologies for being specifically focused on reaching those far away from God. We desire to bring the broken home at all costs. We believe that our light is best seen in the night.

We believe that the Bible is God’s Word. It is accurate, authoritative and applicable to our everyday lives.

We believe in one eternal God who is the Creator of all things. He exists in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. He is totally loving and completely holy.

We believe that sin has separated each of us from God and His purpose for our lives.

We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ as both God and man is the only One who can reconcile us to God. He lived a sinless and exemplary life, died on the cross in our place, and rose again to prove His victory, save us from our sins, and empower us for life.

We believe that in order to receive forgiveness and the ‘new birth’ we must repent of our sins, believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and submit to His will for our lives.

We believe that in order to live the holy and fruitful lives that God intends for us, we need to be baptized in water and be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit enables us to use spiritual gifts.

We believe in the power and significance of the Church and the necessity of believers to meet regularly together for fellowship, prayer and the ‘breaking of bread’.

We believe that God has individually equipped us so that we can successfully achieve His purpose for our lives which is to worship God, fulfill our role in the Church and serve the community in which we live.

We believe that God wants to heal and transform us so that we can live healthy and blessed lives in order to help others more effectively.

We believe that our eternal destination of either Heaven or hell is determined by our response to the Lord Jesus Christ.

We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is coming back again as He promised.

We believe in being friends and not just friendly.

We believe we serve best when we serve together.

We believe in passion over polish.

We believe in praise over perfection.

We believe we walk best when we walk together.

We believe in going anywhere to tell everyone about the love of Christ.

We believe that no one is ever too far gone for God.

We believe that compassion demands action.
