We are convinced that the nature of God only makes sense through the lens of love. Diversity echoes God’s good plan for creation. We believe regardless of age, race, gender identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, physical abilities, background, or history with God, everyone has a place to grow personally and to serve others as a fully participating part of the family of God. Therefore, we highly value and seek to identify and cultivate the unique contributions of every human to God’s work of love in the world.
