Our Core Values

Life Church International’s Core Values


We Value Relationship With God

We believe that we are to be fully devoted to Christ and honour Him above all else.

We Value Christian Character

We believe that we are to be ambassadors of Christ and, as such, conduct our lives in a way that will always honour Him.

We Value Christian Community

We believe the local church is an expression of the family of God, and all relationships are built on the understanding that we are a family.

We Value the Mandate of Jesus To Reach All People Groups

We believe that God has entrusted the church with the mandate to reach all nations.

We Value the Equality of All People

We believe that all people, regardless of race, social status or gender, are equally important to God, equally accepted in His family and have equal opportunity.

We Value the Uniqueness of Culture

We believe every ethnic group has within its culture a unique expression, which adds value to the church. Together the combined expression reflects the creativity of God in His people.

We Value the Grace of God Working In His Church

We believe that it is God’s grace (God’s empowering presence) working in the community of believers which causes us to be transformed into the people that God intends us to be.

We Value the Bible as the Inspired Word of God

We believe that the Bible is the revealed word of God and that God never contradicts His word.

We Value the Ministry of All Believers

We believe that God has given all members of His family gifts, abilities and resources, for the building up of the church and for the advancement of the kingdom of God.

We Value the Ministry of the Body

We believe that God works through His body, the church and that together as a family, the church will fulfil its purpose, which is to declare God’s manifold wisdom to all of creation.

We Value Creative Expression in Worship

We believe room should be given for the many and varied gifts, talents and creative abilities resident in the body, including music, singing, dancing, drama, etc.

We Value Making Room for God To Direct the Meeting and Speak to His People

We believe that when we gather together, it is important to give room for God to direct the meeting and speak to His people through the gifts of the spirit, such as prophecy, words of knowledge or words of wisdom.

We Value God-given Servant Leadership

We believe that God places servant leadership in His church, which is there for its protection and to help the church fulfil its destiny. We embrace the ascension gift ministries of the Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor and Teacher and recognise their role in bringing the church to maturity.

We Value Building for the Next Generation

We believe that we hold in trust what we have for the next generation. It is our responsibility to increase what we have in God and to invest in the next generation the necessary values and skills so that they will be wise stewards of God’s riches.

We Value the Greater Body of Christ

We believe that the body of Christ is bigger than our own church family and that we are called to partner with other churches / streams at local, national and international levels for the extension of the kingdom of God.
