Salt Company Resident

MISSION:

Our mission is to help people take their next step with Jesus

‍

CHURCH ORGANIZATIONAL VALUES:

THE GOSPEL

Jesus is the main thing and always will be.

We don't mean to over-simplify it, but it's really that simple. If you come to our church, you're going to hear a lot about Jesus. It is His life, death, resurrection and return that sets us free from sin and sets us loose to recognize our purpose.

DEPENDENCY

Our plumbline is God’s Word, our power is God’s Spirit, our posture is prayer, and our practice is to do life together.

NEIGHBORING

We believe God puts us where we are with intentionality, so we want to live where we are with intentionality.

URGENCY

We give and we go sacrificially, boldly and fast.

FOCUS

We are going to be great at a few things instead of trying to be good at everything.

THE NEXT GENERATION

Win the campus, win the world.

MULTIPLICATION

God’s mission is multiplication, not addition.  We multiply leaders, connection groups and churches.

‍

STAFF BEHAVIORAL VALUES:

CULTURE & CHARACTER

• Humble - We want to be like Jesus and Jesus came to serve, not to be served.  We deflect praise, own our mistakes, submit to authority, remain teachable and we lead by serving.

• Hungry - A lot’s at stake and we know it.  We work hard, pursue excellence and we’re not complacent during times of success.

• Healthy - We can’t lead our church well if we’re not leading our families well and we can’t lead our families well if we’re not leading ourselves well.  We want to be healthy spiritually, physically, emotionally, mentally, relationally and maritally.

• Holy - As goes the leadership, so goes the church.  We don’t hide our sin, we confess it.  We take sin seriously and pursue godliness.

• Family - We’re more than just employees, we’re family.  Families spend time with each other, share meals with each other, get real with each other, take care of each other, encourage and challenge each other.

CAPACITY
