Forefront's Core Values
God First - We seek to rely on and honor God in all we do. Everything is done with prayer, integrity, and excellence.

People - We reach out to people without a relationship with Jesus and help them to be transformed into radical 'Love God - Love People' Christians.

Grace Wholesalers - We love people unconditionally and help them onto the road to healing and wholeness in Christ.

Doctrinally Pure - Culturally Relevant - We are true to God's Word and to our times. We will never be out of date, out of touch, or out of sync with God.

Community Must Happen - We exist to create and live in close-knit, loving community which reflects the nature of God and helps to meet the needs God has put in each one of us.

Lives of Significance - We want to lead every person to use the gifts and pursue the passions God has placed in them to minister to other people, advance His Kingdom, and turn the world upside down.

Pacesetters - We push change, use creativity, and seek innovation to stay fresh and reach God's goals for our church, and to inspire and train other churches to be more effective in fulfilling the mission God has for them.
