At The West Church
Our desire is to cultivate a Christ-centered, Spirit-empowered, and God-honoring culture. Culture encompasses what we do and don’t do, what we say and don’t say, how we live and don’t live, what we allow and don’t allow, and what we celebrate and mourn. We strive to infuse every worship service, West Group gathering, outreach event, meeting, counseling session, and ministry effort with this culture so that the aroma of Christ permeates it all (2 Corinthians 2:15)
In addition to our core values
We emphasize team values, which shape how we work together as co-laborers. These values are not meant to be memorized but serve as a shared playbook and reference point as we carry out the work God has called us to in our respective ministry areas. Like our core values, we reinforce team values using the “drip method,” where we discuss them regularly, preach and teach on them, and use them as a guide in staff meetings, ministry team meetings, and members’ gatherings.
At the heart of our team values
Is a commitment to Christ-like service. Jesus said in Mark 10:45, “For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.” While we may hold different titles and responsibilities, we are, above all, servants. May we never lose sight of that truth.
