Our Culture

We are a community of Christ-Followers humbly living out the gospel each and every day, through our cultural values.

Our Culture Identifies Us

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, and with all your mind and with all your strength… Love your neighbor as yourself
MARK 12:30-31

As a ministry that prays that all children and youth throughout the world will come to know, love, and serve the Lord Jesus Christ, we take seriously our responsibility to work diligently and discerningly on a regular basis. With an abundance of opportunities in front of us and no shortage of distractions all around us, we remain an organization and a team driven by and committed to this series of values.

 

These organizational values do not run counter to our workforce culture principles. Rather, these are the primary values from which all other aspects of our work stem.

 

 

 

Living Out Our Mission with Passion and Purpose

PRAY

We are people who pray. Corporately at the organizational level, within individual teams, around individual meetings – we pray. We recognize that the work we do cannot happen without the blessing of God and the direction of the Holy Spirit. We pray that He might lead us and sustain us in this disciple-making work.

HUSTLE

We are people who hustle. We work hard, we are driven, and we are determined. But hustle does not mean hurry. We aren’t frantic, but we’re willing to be scrappy. We don’t rush and we don’t run ourselves ragged. Hurry is anti the ways of Jesus. Hustle is an appropriate intensity for the importance of our work – a readiness and courage to act.

CRAFT

We are people who use and hone their God-given craft. Each of our team members brings a unique skill, art, expertise, and gift to the organization — this craft, both used and refined for the sake and ongoing benefit of the mission and individuals.

LOVE

We are people who love. Love is the greatest of all attributes. We will be known by our love for Jesus, our love for one another, our love for the Church, and our love for our mission of making disciples who follow Him. To effectively live out our mission, genuine love for our ministry, our partners, and our teams is critical.
