Love God
Gospel-Centered Life
Jesus demands that we love God with all of our heart, soul, mind, and strength…
As a Church, the gospel demands us to love God in every faculty and every capacity of our being and it should express the fullness of our affection for God—the fullness of all the ways we treasure him. At the Park we understand that the Kingdom of God, is a matter of the heart and not ritual. It is a matter of heart devotion not hard duty. Loving God is found in Gospel-Centered Life. We believe the reason people feel so unsettled and unhappy in life is because they have rejected God’s rule over their lives. Our rejection of God’s love rule has left us under a state of corruption and condemnation, and His absence has left a huge void in our hearts. Jesus Christ is God Incarnated; He satisfied God's Virtues of love by absorbing God’s righteous wrath against our sin and bridged the gap between us and the Father.
We believe that the saving love of God is God’s commitment to do everything necessary to captivate us with what is most deeply and durably satisfying, namely himself. Since we are sinners and have no right and no desire to be captivated with God, therefore God’s love enacted a plan of redemption to provide that right and that desire.
Love People
Christ-Centered life
"Love one another as I have loved you" mean we should live as Christ lived, in community; you shall love your neighbor as yourself. Jesus revealed the depth and breadth of his love for his disciples, called them and gathered them unto him. We lived together, worked together, ministered together, break bread together and shared a common purse. We believe Jesus lived life the way it was meant to be lived, because of that love he had for others. We do life together. By becoming a community of Jesus followers we must turn from our self-worshiping, self-serving lifestyles and become the followers (disciples) of God we were created to be. Christ Centered means love. We believe the love we have for each other shows that we are truly Jesus’ disciples, as a community we are called to love as Jesus loved. We are not designed to live our lives alone. We need community. We need one another. We need Christ-Centered Lifestyle.
Prove it
Cross-Centered Life
We are committed to cross-centered living, by putting to action our love for our community, we cannot help but deal with others by the same manner we deal with our own souls. We’re for people. We’re for our community in loving our neighbor as ourselves. We are committed to keeping our church simple by living a cross-centered life, by appealing to the love of God in the cross for all advancement in work, worship, community, nations, sanctification and proving it. We’re for our community and the generosity to the poor will flow through us because we hold fast to the gospel as our profession (2 Cor. 9:13).
