Christian Life Church Core Values
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God.
We believe that Spirit-anointed teaching and preaching and the daily study
of the Bible are the doors to a growing relationship with God.
(Psalm 19:7-11, Matthew 4:4, Hebrews 4:12, 2 Timothy 3:16)
We believe that worship is an expression of our love in
response to God's love for us. We seek to daily worship Him
passionately and freely in Spirit and in truth.
(Psalm 95:1-7, John 4:23, 1 John 4;19, Ephesians 5:18b-20, Romans 12:1)
We believe prayer is our lifeline through which we daily
personally interact with our God. We believe that our prayers
supernaturally move God to act on behalf of His people.
(Jeremiah 33:3, Matthew 6:5-13, Ephesians 3:14-21, Philippians 4:6,

seek to follow His guidance.
(John 5:19, Corinthians 14:3-4 & 39, 1 Thessalonians 5:20-21, 1 John 4:1)

Spirit. We believe in His direction, encouragement and empowerment in
the life of every believer.

We believe it is important and expected that every
believer grow and mature in their spiritual life toward the goal of
Christ-likeness. We believe the key to growth is in being led by the
Holy Spirit to live by the Word of God. We seek to equip, encourage
and empower each person to maximize their God given potential.
(Ephesians 4:15, 2 Peter 3:18, Galatians 5:22-25, Romans 8:4-5)

extending His Kingdom. We are committed to being wise Christian
stewards of God's blessings through tithing and generous giving.
(Psalm 37:25-26, Malachi 3:10, 2 Corinthians 9:6-8, Galatians 6:7)
We believe strongly in the commandment to love, honor,
show respect and forgive one another. We seek to build strong
marriages and families and to raise up our youth and children using Biblical
values and training.

Corinthians 12:14-27, Ephesians 4:25,

We recognize that people's lives have been wounded and
damaged, but God's desire is healing and restoration. We believe and
trust in the power of God to divinely heal and restore people's lives in
spirit, soul and body.
(Psalm 103:3, Isaiah 53:5, Mark 16:18, James 5:14-16, Joel 2:25)
We reach out with love, compassion and the truth of God's
word to all people. We show the love of God by meeting the needs of
people through good works.
