God’s Presence
The essential and defining component of our services. Without it, we are nothing; within it we find everything. His presence is what heals us, comforts us, guides us and breathes new life into our souls. We believe that God’s House is a place where all people can come and experience life as God intended it - a place where love is felt, relationships are formed and destiny is discovered.
People
We value people and seek to treat each person with respect and dignity because they are made in the image of God. What matters is loving people! We celebrate people being transformed. We see each person as a unique individual fearfully and wonderfully made in the image of God. We prioritize and think people first and not programs.
Diversity
We are committed to experiencing life as a diverse community. We celebrate all cultures, races, personalities, ages and backgrounds because each reflects the beauty of our Maker in a unique way. Our differences individually complete us corporately.
Excellence
We value excellence shown in the quality and creativity of our work because we are a reflection of God. We believe mediocrity and God’s honor do not mix. God is worthy of our best. Going beyond what is required, giving our best at all times in everything we do brings joy to God’s heart and glory to His name.
Integrity of Character
We value the integrity of character that allows us to engage in our mission without compromising our testimony. Character is more important than what you do.
The Next Generation
We are dedicated to reaching and equipping the next generation to be mighty men and women of God whose lives transform their sphere of influence and make an eternal impact in the world.
Teamwork
God has placed in man a desire to be a part of something bigger than himself. As we serve in His House together, we share in the joy of seeing our unique strengths, abilities and gifts unite to accomplish God’s Kingdom purposes in our community and across the world.
We do life together!
Generosity
Generosity is our lifestyle. We want to lead the way with the kind of generosity that only makes sense in light of God’s grace. We strive to be generous and wise with everything God has entrusted to us. We desire to reflect His character and model His generosity. Generosity finds the favor of God!
Family:
We are all born into a family, and every family looks very different. Families come in many different shapes, colors, dynamics, and sizes. Our goal is to help all kinds of families, in all kinds of situations, discover and pursue God’s design from wherever they are. However, no matter our natural family situation, when we give our lives to God, he places us in a family – His family; May City Temple be a place to call home – family among families!
Celebration:
We Celebrate Life! We celebrate God’s goodness and grace. We want to rejoice with people on significant occasions and events giving God honor for what He is doing in them and through them. Nothing is better than celebrating God together!
