Our Culture

Our culture is made up of four elements: Our vision, values, unique characteristics and standards of leadership. This defines what drives us, how we do ministry, our purpose and standards we are called to walk in.

OUR VISION

Ignite revival by leading people into personal encounters with Jesus.

Our Values

Trust

Consistent and Authentic

We value and work towards consistent and authentic relationships that will encourage and inspire others to do the same. Trust is earned through actions that show love and respect. We commit to being honest and real even when it’s uncomfortable.

Empowerment

Encourage, Equip, Release

We empower those with our heart to lead with their mind. We equip those we empower with spiritual and practical tools so they can lead well. We commit to encourage and release authority that matches responsibility.

Honor

Led By Love

We commit to viewing others through the eyes of Christ, and choose honor over offense. To honor is to be led by love in every situation regardless of your emotions.

Celebration

Joy for the Journey

We value and embrace the power of celebration! We find joy in the steps of our journey big and small. We celebrate God and each other, recognizing that in celebration we find His joy and our strength.

Communication

Listen, Respond, Follow Through

We value communication by clearly making our thoughts, expectations, and intentions known. We listen with the intent to hear and with an open mind. Our goal is to communicate with excellence and authenticity.

Generosity

Freely Give

We value generosity as a way of life. We freely and cheerfully give our time, treasure, and talents from a heart of love, with pure motives, seeking nothing in return.

Health

Go Far, Go Long

We value health by pursuing daily encounters with God, protecting the sabbath, and cultivating a healthy lifestyle that will allow us to go far and go long while leading by example.

Pursuit

Seek First

We intentionally pursue the heart of God daily and value His presence above all else. Our first ministry is to Jesus. He will always have preeminence.

Unity

Connection over competition

We value connection above competition by acting in love toward others. Unity is about asking how we can work together, not what we will get in return.

Invested

All in

We believe in action and commit to becoming servants by investing in the vision of the house. We joyfully offer our talents, abilities, and resources to advance the Kingdom of God.

Excellence

Reflecting heaven

We reflect heaven by valuing excellence in everything we do. Excellence is representing the Lord by doing the best we can with what we have.

Unique Characteristics

We Are Presence Driven

We are not built around any personality or ministry, we are built around the presence of God. That means He is central to everything we do.

We Unify The Bride

We are committed to cross divides, building bridges and unifying the Bride. We value connection above competition.

We Value 5-Fold Ministry

We value and give room for 5-fold ministry as described in Ephesians 4. Unity of the faith is the goal, and the 5-Fold ministry is the means to accomplish this.

We Are Generationally Minded

We make decisions with generations in mind. We need every generation to be actively engaged with God and His plan for their life.

We Reach Neighbors & Nations

We are committed to missions; local, and abroad by actively impacting our community and nations with the heart of God.

We Build Altars Not Stages

We are committed to making our ministry to the Lord the highest priority. Everything we do is for Him.

Standards of Leadership

Daily Encounters

We engage the Lord through daily personal encounters by welcoming the Holy Spirit, asking the Lord to speak to us and listening for His response.

Integrity

We value integrity in leadership. We are leaders with integrity that act in accordance with our words (we practice what we preach). We own up to our mistakes, as opposed to hiding them, blaming our team, or making excuses.

Humility

We practice humility by honoring others, learning from mistakes, and encouraging one another.

Lead By Example

We commit ourselves to lead by example in every area of our lives. This is the heart of discipleship. We are discipling as we are being discipled.

Communication

We value communication by clearly making our thoughts, expectations and intentions known. Healthy communication today shapes the tomorrow we are working toward.

Forgiveness

We exercise forgiveness at all costs by asking for God’s forgiveness, forgiving ourselves, and forgiving others. We believe there is no spiritual growth without forgiveness.

Sabbath

We honor the Sabbath and keep it Holy by stewarding our time according to God’s teachings, balancing productivity with a commitment to take time away, and recover in order to not risk our health, well-being and effectiveness for the kingdom.

Tithe

We tithe and steward what God has given us. We honor God with our finances by tithing faithfully to WorldFire Church, and stewarding all the Lord has given to us and our families.
