Vision & Values

The Great Commandment

He (Jesus) said to him, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and most important command. The second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself. All the Law and the Prophets depend on these two commands.” Matthew 22:37–40 CSB

The Great Commission

Jesus came near and said to them, “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:18–20 CSB

In Transformation Church’s vision, “multiethnic, multigenerational, mission-shaped community” is from the Great Commission and “love God completely (Upward), ourselves correctly (Inward), and our neighbors compassionately (Outward)” is from the Great Commandment.

A High & Lofty View Of God

We are committed, through the Spirit’s enabling power, to teach a high and lofty view of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. All our actions, teaching, prayer, mission, and spiritual transformation will be driven by our view of God.

The Transformative Gospel Of Grace

We are committed, through the Spirit’s enabling power, to be a community that invites and seeks out the wounded, the brokenhearted, and the marginalized so that they can be transformed by the Gospel of Grace into the image of Jesus, joining Him on His mission to transform the world.

We are committed, through the Spirit’s enabling power, to the belief that Grace is Jesus Himself coming to live in and through His people. Life in the Kingdom is empowered by the King of Kings, not human effort.

Kingdom Partnerships

We are committed, through the Spirit’s enabling power, to partner with other churches that desire to advance the Kingdom. We will not compete with other churches.

Multiethnic & Multigenerational Diversity

We are committed, through the Spirit’s enabling power, to multiethnic and multigenerational diversity.

Excellence

We are committed, through the Spirit’s enabling power, to ministry excellence. Ministry excellence is worship! Our systems and structures must function with excellence in order to steward the people of Transformation Church.

Leadership Development

We are committed, through the Spirit’s enabling power, to leadership development. The Church rises or falls on the shoulders of Her leaders; therefore, every member must be seen as a “royal priest” and a leader.

People Over Production

We are committed, by the Spirit’s enabling power, to value people for more than what they can produce. We will not prostitute people over and against their spiritual health and transformation.

Servant Community

We are committed, by the Spirit’s enabling power, to develop a biblical, servant-hearted community, in which we serve each other through our grace-gifts as we serve in our spheres of influence by being the heart, hands, and feet of Jesus.

Relevancy

We are committed, by the Spirit’s enabling power, to be a missionary community. Therefore, we’ll communicate the timeless truths of God’s Word in a way that displays the relevant nature of the Gospel to address contemporary issues.

Generosity

We are committed, by the Spirit’s enabling power, to financial generosity. We cannot outgive our God; therefore, we will teach and live biblical financial stewardship.
