LIFELINES: Our Core Values

 

What is a Lifeline?

1:    A line (as a rope) used for saving or preserving life:

2:    Something regarded as indispensable for the maintaining or 

       protection of life

 

The following LIFELINES are CORE VALUES which represent our

commitments to God's will and vision for this house of faith. 

 

Lifelines are indispensable to maintaining the spiritual distinctives of this

local body and to the continual growth and development of every believer

who calls Evangel their home. 

 

The integration of these values into a believer's life will preserve the

Spiritual DNA of Evangel, and empower us to be a World Class Church

that develops World Class Leaders.

       complete, absolute, uncompromising trust in God and His Word.

 

4.    Stewardship – We are committed to teaching God's people how to

       reflect and flow in the excellence of God in everyday life and in

       ministry to the Lord and to His people.
