Equipping and Forming Healthy Churches and Healthy Leaders for the good of the World (Ephesians 4:11-16)
-
In Christ, we equip the church and leaders to carry out the mission of building up the Body of Christ; rooted in Reformed faith and always being transformed by God’s Word. (Colossians 1:18; Acts 1:8; 2 Timothy 3:16–17)
-
Christ-Centered Unity: We are one body with many members, united under Christ the Head of the Church; though our ministries, mission, and expressions may vary, we covenant together in Christ. (1 Corinthians 12)
Relational Health and Pastoral Care: Believing that healthy leaders and congregations faithfully fulfill their calling, we proactively care for one another rooted in the comfort and assurance of the gospel. (2 Corinthians 1:3-5; Heidelberg Catechism, Q&A 1)
Formation and Shared Learning: We are always being formed and reformed by the Spirit of God and placed into covenant communities. Our structure, accountability, and covenant relationships allow us to work and learn together. (Titus 1:5-9)
Missional and Contextual Faithfulness: As the people of God in the world, our congregations and leaders participate in God’s Mission across diverse contexts and cultures. With dignity and respect, with a vision for the wider kingdom of God, we choose to covenant together. (Revelation 7:9)
Shared Aspiration: Grounded in our commitments to unity, relational health, shared learning and missional faithfulness, we aspire to be a covenantal community of diverse churches and leaders who humbly learn together and seek to follow Jesus in today’s world.
