Core Values Part 2

We are continuing our core values post.  The next three core values are:  Serve, Give, and Grow!

Serve
Jesus said he came to serve not be served.  In John 13 He washed His disciples feet to make that point evident.  Launch Point Church is about serving others.  We want to build God's Kingdom not our own.  We will seek to serve each other and the community around us.  In time we will be known as a church that serves!

Give
We know that all things are made by Christ and for Christ.  We are the stewards of the gifts and resources we have.  Therefore, we desire to honor and glorify God with all that we are and all that we have.  We will give of our money, time and possessions to see the Kingdom of God grow.  We believe that our treasures are in Heaven and we will live our lives that way.

Grow
We desire to see people launched and fueled along on their journey with Christ.  We will evangelize the lost and disciple the believers.  Through these two things there will be numerical and spiritual grow.  The church that is alive and active will be a growing church.

Our remaining core values are Truth, Family and Excellence.  We will post the details in a few days.

Daniel 11:32 says "The people who know their God will display strength and take action."  Launch Point Church will always seek to be driven by the Holy Spirit through doctrine (understanding of scripture) and our core values.  These two things will cause us to be a church of strength and action!
