Core Values

At GraceLife Church these are the things we value:

We value TRUTH which can be applied to our lives so that we can adopt a Biblical worldview and communicate the Gospel. Truth must be communicated in love.

We value RELATIONSHIPS through which we build the body of Christ with discipleship, encourage each other to love and godly living, and provide individualized ministries. We understand the church to be a family of believers who meet together because we are called out of the world.

We value the THEOLOGICAL positions of Classical Dispensationalism and  Free Grace view of salvation and sanctification.

We value PRAYER as a powerful tool to communicate with God through which He effects change, comforts, and uses us to minister to our neighboring context.

We value LIFE as an extension of God’s image which He created in man. Therefore we support monogamous, heterosexual marriage. We advocate for the life of the unborn.

We value GRACE as the attitude of God toward a sinful world through which He offers salvation freely to all whereby they may receive it freely through faith. Grace is also our attitude with one another as we seek to love as God loves, though we still make mistakes and still sin. When it comes to our relationship with those who are not of the body of Christ we seek to give and reflect God’s grace based upon His love for them.
