About Pillar Church
Our Values
Innocence(We Fight for Innocence) — Matthew 10:16
Our definition of innocence is this: godly simplicity with the absence of ungodly motivation. It involves perspective and motivation. When we read God’s word, we want to act like it’s the first time to ever see it; a childlike excitement when we find something new to celebrate about God. It also involves motive. We must not manipulate, because manipulation is man’s statement to God that we don’t need him to get to our desired outcome. Jesus commands his followers to be innocent. So in this house, we FIGHT for innocence.
Obedience(We Love to Shema) — Deuteronomy 6:4–5 (NKJV)
The simple biblical definition of Shema means to hear, but it has a much richer meaning. It means to hear so clearly and strongly that you are compelled to obey whatever you hear. Obedience is the daily evidence that we truly see Jesus as the Lord of our life. Not obeying simply means doing things our own way. We love to Shema because we love being surprised by God’s extravagant response to our faithful obedience to his voice.
Growth (We are Serious About Growth) — Hebrews 12:1 (NIV)
Our definition of growth is this: the act of personally developing by constantly improving. One of the reasons we are so serious about growth is that healthy things always grow. As a church, the best thing we can do to help you grow is get off of you that which is causing you to run so slow. The ability to grow is one of the greatest gifts God gives us because none of us wants to stay where we are today, forever. We want to grow. But here, we don’t just want to, we are serious about actually doing it.
Generosity(We Live to Give) — 2 Corinthians 9:6-7
Our definition of generosity is this: being sacrificially openhanded in giving to God and to others. You can give without loving but you cannot love without giving. We LIVE to give because we LOVE the Giver.
Unity (We Thrive When We are Unified) — Psalm 133 NIV
Our definition of unity is being of one accord, living in harmony. While we are many parts, together we make up the whole. We are better and stronger together than we are apart. United, we support and encourage one another, knowing that when we live and work together, we thrive.
Romance (We Aren’t Settling for Religion, We’re Going for Romance) — Matthew 6:7-8
Our definition of romance is this: the art of unpredictable pursuit. Unfortunately, for many followers of Jesus, our walk with God becomes repetitiously monotonous rather than romantically miraculous. Jesus did not die for a boringly religious relationship with you, He died for a romantically intimate relationship with you. Romance was the motive behind Christ’s death. That’s why here, you won’t see us settle for religion, we will ALWAYS go for romance.
