We Value God's Love and Acceptance
God’s love and acceptance are extraordinary and mighty gifts available to all. We stay connected to God by keeping Jesus front and center in everything that we are. What does that mean? It means that we work every day to follow His teachings and to make ourselves available for His work. Because we all matter to Jesus, we want to reach out to people regardless of their background. Whoever you are, Jesus can powerfully change and restore your life and your heart in this safe, welcoming community. Through Him, we are able to realize our eternal worth.
We Value Openness
Honestly, sometimes being a Christian can be messy and challenging. By loving one another, even through difficult times, we remain committed to living together in authenticity and integrity. We encourage genuine connections between people. We do not hide our struggles or our failings. Because we seek a transformative relationship with God and each other, we at SouthHills are wholeheartedly invested in each other’s growth. As individuals and in community, we serve sacrificially with compassion and joy.
We Value Belonging
We want to be a multigenerational family that cultivates and nurtures the spiritual gifts and abilities that have been given to each of us. We believe that every member, in every generation, is a minister with something special to share. We honor the fellowship and discipline that help us to progress in the love of God. No matter our age or station in life, we are about protecting the unity of the Holy Spirit in our community and in our world.
We Value Serving Our World
We believe that the way we live our lives stands as the best witness to the love of Jesus Christ. We make the greatest impact when we take our relationship with God into a rapidly changing world. Giving, missions, and participating in community-centered projects are all ways in which we reach out and contribute to the greater good. Allowing the Holy Spirit to lead and inspire us, we are blessed to serve those around us consciously and with firm intention.
We Value Creation
There is such awe and wonderment in God’s creation! We glory in the abundance of His natural world and we welcome the opportunity to serve Him as mindful, compassionate stewards of all He has given us.
We Value Fun
We serve a passionate, exuberant God! We believe in celebrating the immeasurable love of the Lord in an environment rich with joy. With energy, excitement, anticipation and much reverence, we regularly come together as a family to praise and worship, to lift our voices all for His good pleasure!
We Value Giving Our Best
We believe that a vibrant, thriving community should reflect the Lord’s excellence. Only He is perfect, we know this, and we marvel at His absolute perfection. We seek each day to follow Christ’s example of honesty, reconciliation and love. With open hearts, we seek to give our best to the one who gave His best, Jesus Christ.
