Values & Beliefs

Our Values

The Word of God
Where the Word speaks; God speaks.
  • We believe that the Bible contains the living, powerful, authoritative word of God.
  • The Bible is the foundation of truth, hope, and the knowledge of salvation.
  • The Bible is how we know who we are, how we know who God is, and how we know the Gospel message.
  • The Bible is the foundation we build the church and our lives upon. 
2 Timothy 3:16-17
Hebrew 4:12
Psalms 119:105
Worship
Fellowship void of performance.
  • Worship is more than a song that we sing on Sundays. 
  • Worship is fellowship with God. Humanity was created to have fellowship with God, but the desire to perform in life dampens the fellowship. Sometimes that performance comes out in trying to please others, put on a show for God, or even living for ourselves.
  • We believe a renewed mind in Christ will bring us to TRUE fellowship with God. 
Romans 12:1
John 4:24
Psalms 100:4

Spirit Led
Living a lifestyle of blessing.
  • The promise of Jesus was that he would never leave us nor forsake us. Jesus fulfilled this promise to us by sending the Holy Spirit.
  • God lives with us every day, and when we allow him he will direct our path.
  • We believe that when a Christian is spirit led they will be a blessing everywhere they go and to everyone they meet. That blessing might be a smile, a kind word,
    a few dollars, or a prayer of faith. In short we show Jesus to the world.
2nd Corinthians 2:15
1st Corinthians 6:19
Hebrews 13:5
Family
Welcome to the family.
  • One of the most amazing truths in the New Testament is that when we are saved we are adopted into the family of GOD. We become sons and daughter to the creator. This changes everything. Maybe your home life was not good, maybe you never had family, or maybe you have a GREAT home life. Whatever the case, all of us need a family and the church should be a second family of people who love, support, and hang out with each other. 
Romans 8:12-15
Acts 2:42-47
Ephesians 1:3-6
Mission
Speaking life to the Next Generation.
  • We believe that we are called to develop the next generation of believers. That believer might be a 10 year old child in JFA Kids or a 60 year old adult in Keenagers.
  • We believe that we speak life to the future by proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ and helping others to become followers of Jesus. 
  • At JFA there is diversity of age because we believe in the future.
Matthew 28:18-20
Revelations 12:11
Acts 1:8

We believe that when a church family lives by these values it changes everything;
because everywhere those people go they will shine the light of Jesus Christ.
