Mission & Vision
‘We are called to be a unique expression of church, centered around the presence of Jesus through night & day worship & prayer for the purpose of seeing families, neighborhoods, and nations transformed as we prepare for His return.’
Core Values
Prayer & Worship
As a unique expression of church, our primary pursuit is to minister to God through personal intimacy w/ Jesus, extravagant devotional worship, corporate intercession, as well encouraging the Church in our city to pursue the same (Is. 56:7; Acts 15:16-17).
Family
We value and celebrate God's heart expressed most clearly as a Father to His family, both in heaven and on earth. We celebrate the church as God's family in community gatherings, small group gatherings, while also celebrating each individual who God has placed in our family community (Is. 56:7; Jn. 13:34-35; Jn. 17:21).
Discipleship
As Jesus instructed His Church to make disciples in all nations, we believe our primary focus is to do so through our Forerunner Discipleship School, through internships, bible studies, conferences, Sunday School classes, etc. as we prepare for the unique dynamics prior to Jesus' return (Mt. 5,6,7; Mt. 28:18-20).
Fasting
We believe that one of the most valuable gifts from God is the secret practice of fasting, combined with prayer. Jesus taught that His absence would create longing in the human heart. We encourage all followers of Jesus to participate in routine personal & corporate weekly fasts, Global Bridegroom Fasts, etc. (Mt. 9:15).
Justice
We believe that every prayer that God answers is an act of His justice over every circumstance that is outside of His sovereign will and plan. This includes evangelism, serving the poor, praying for the sick, fighting for the widow and the orphan, while working directly with justice ministries who labor in our city (Is. 58:6-8).
Spiritual Gifts
We desire to pursue and walk in all that God has made available to His church, including spiritual gifts. This is our desire, as Paul instructs us to do so. We believe that the New Testament model for followers of Jesus is to walk with Holy Spirit, talk with the Holy Spirit, and to love by the Holy Spirit as we pursue a spirit of unity (1 Cor. 12:1; 1 Cor. 14:1,5; Eph. 4:13-14).
