About The Heights Church
OUR VALUES
At Heights, there are many different church backgrounds represented. While we celebrate our differences, we also need to come under the same vision and speak the same language, so that we can be the most effective we can be.
Our values help us create a clear culture so that you can come in and know how and why we do what we do. This is how we roll—the core values that guide and shape everything we do:
- We expectantly pursue God.
Because we choose to put God first, we believe that God has immeasurably more for us. We sit on the edge of our seats in anticipation. - We are radically generous.
Because our Father gave everything to us, our time, talent, and resources will reflect His place in our lives. It’s a joy for us to give to others. - We are authentic.
Because fake is exhausting, God wants us, not the person you pretend to be. - We > Me.
Because “me first” makes me miserable, we prefer others above ourselves. We believe what we’re a part of is bigger than the role we play. We happily know that this is not about “me”. - We set the tone.
Because everything we do reflects Jesus, we believe everything we do should be excellent. We will raise the temperature, tone, and mood of everything around us. - We are family.
Because church isn’t an organization you join, but a family that you need to belong to, we fight to make sure there’s always room for more. Welcome home! - We serve relentlessly.
Because we love serving God and people, this isn’t an obligation, it’s a privilege. Serving isn’t what we do, it’s who we are. It’s not a “have to”, it’s a “get to”. - We are never finished.
Because heaven and hell are realities, we will never stop moving. We will, “by all means” run our race to win and one day hear, “Well done”.
