Core Biblical Values:
Scripture: We are committed to teaching and using the Bible. The Bible is the authority and sufficiency of the Word of God for life and godliness, demonstrated in faithful preaching, pastoring (one to one) and individual study. (2 Tim 3:16, Acts 2:42).
Prayer: We are committed to prayer and see it as a priority, both individually and in groups. Prayer is an expression of our dependence on God and our relationship with him (Col 4:2; Eph 6:18).
Sharing our faith: We are committed to presenting the Lord Jesus to those who don’t yet know him. We will do this by ministering Christ’s love in both word and deed in Albion Park Rail. By doing this we display a genuine care for the individual’s spiritual and physical needs (Mt 28:19; 1 Peter 3:15).
Fellowship: We are committed to meeting together under the word of God for mutual encouragement and growing in godliness (Eph 2:22, Phil 2:2, Heb 3:25). We are committed to sharing the finances, time and energy that God gives us to meet the spiritual and physical needs of one another for the glory of God (Acts 2:44-45). We are committed to sharing meals together and participating in the Lord’s Supper together as a way of strengthening the fellowship that God has won for us in Christ Jesus (Lk 22:14-22; Acts 2:42, 46).
Serving / Training: We are committed to identifying, developing, nurturing, modelling and equipping partners to serve, undertake leadership and ministry roles. Our leaders are to selflessly nourish and guide those in their care. (1 Pet 5:1-4; Phil 1:5; Jn 10:11).
Sending: We are committed to sending out workers and congregations. This may be done through church planting, sending partners to support local churches & encouraging partners to consider Christian ministry (short or long term, full or part time, locally or globally). (Mt 9:28)
Relationships: We are committed to integrity, transparency and accountability in all relationships. Our words and actions are to be consistent with God’s Word and above reproach. We are committed to speaking the truth in love. (Mt 5:13-16; Eph 4:15; Phil 2:14-16)

“The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”
