LOVE GOD.
We love God for who He is, and for everything He has done for us.
1 John 4:19 says that “We love because he first loved us.” We are unashamedly in love with the one who loves us and saved us.
This means that the outworking of our faith is a result of God’s love for us, not rules or religion.
LOVE PEOPLE.
We love people! Our heart is that all people, regardless of circumstance, would feel welcome at Citylife, and find a spiritual family here.
Jesus said in John 13:35 “By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” We hope and pray that with the grace of God, we can live this out, and be known for our love.
LIVE HIS PURPOSE.
God’s purpose for us is absolutely clear from His Word. We are called to make disciples (Matt 28:19-20).
This means helping our friends to discover the grace of God, and helping people grow in their relationship with Him.
It also includes serving the needs of our city, and sharing the amazing message of God’s grace, both locally and globally.
The Vision
“To transform our community through the power of God and innovation.”
Lighthouse sees things differently. Our emphasis is not on Sunday but on people living Monday to Sunday with significance. Lighthouse is a place where everyone is encouraged to see the local community as their responsibility.
Lighthouse started as a church but is now registered as community organisation. We have moved in our understanding of “the church” as a building or organisation to a living description of a community of people. At Lighthouse the church is the people – a movement.
