Seven Cities Church exists to guide people to life in Christ.
OUR VALUES
1. Reaching People
Every person has a story, and every story matters to God; therefore, they matter to us! We are laborers in His harvest. Reaching people is just the beginning!
(John 3:16-17, Matt. 9: 36-38, Matt. 28:18-20)
2. Growing People
Spiritual growth happens best in discipleship focused relationships. We all need a guide and we should all be guiding someone else to life in Christ. We will foster a growth-focused environment for people in all stages.
(Matt. 28:18-20, Heb. 5:12-14)
3. Generosity
Generosity is a heart condition that leads to a lifestyle. Generosity comes from within and is about so much more than money. We are generous with our time, talent, treasure, and testimony.
(2 Cor. 9:6-13, Phil. 4:17, 1 Pet. 3:15)
4. Community
Communities form when people have a common interest and a common mission. Our common interest is Jesus and our common mission is His Great Commission.
(Matt. 22:37-40, Matt. 28:18-20, Heb. 10:25)
5. Encouragement
Scripture is filled with encouragement and we want to be a people of encouragement. The church should be a place where people are built up, encouraged, and empowered to live for Christ.
(Eph. 4:11-16)
6. Excellence
Excellence is giving God your very best, in obedience to Him, over time. Doing things with excellence demonstrates that we want to honor God and honor those He sends our way.
(Matt. 22:37-40, 2 Tim. 4:6-8, Heb. 12:1-2)
7. Dreaming Big
We want to dream God-sized dreams and do our part as He shows Himself strong in us and through us. We pray believing that God will fulfill His will and that He is able to do far more than we can ask, think, or imagine.
(2 Tim. 1:7, Eph. 3:20-21)
