Our values are the ideals that we hold to at Word of Life Ministries. They exert a powerful influence on the kind of people we are and are an intrinsic part of our church body. Jesus is our example. Jesus impressed upon His disciples to walk as He walked. If we claim to be His disciples, ultimately our lives must reflect the same values that Jesus expressed. The following values briefly encompass our personality as a ministry:

1. We are committed to simplicity and truthfulness. Nothing is ever done purely for effect or to manipulate people.

2. We are committed to honesty, integrity, and loyalty.

3. We are committed to keeping ourselves from gossip, contention, strife and the planting of discord.

4. People are more important than rules and regulations.

5. We highly value one-on-one relationships.

6. Clothing is not a form of status or means of acceptance.

7. The building is not "the church". It is only a place where we, the church, meet.

8. Giving of ourselves, our time and our money expresses our love, worship and commitment to God and His program, the Church. We give because we want to, not because we have to. It is unscriptural to coerce people into giving.

9. Serving God is a joy and a blessing. Therefore, we serve Him willingly - not because we have to.

10. We encourage others to reach their full potential in Christ and to allow them to be what God wants them to be.
