Fenton Park Bible Church
FPBC Core Values
The authority of Christ and His word, the
Bible
(Col.1:18, 2 Tim.3:16-17, Heb.1:1-2)
• We believe that the Head of the church is Jesus Christ and
that in life and ministry, His Word is our final authority. It
is timeless and relevant, able to meet needs and address
specific issues and problems people face today.
Prayer
(Phil.4:6, Eph.6:18, Col.4:2, 1 Thess.5:16-18)
• Prayer is the strength, support and surrounding quality for
all we do and every initiative we take.
Discipleship & growth
(Matt.16:18, 28:19-20, Acts 2:41, 5:14, 6:1&7, 9:31, 16:5,
Col.1:27-28)
• Jesus said “I will build my church”. The book of Acts shows us
a clear picture of growth, both spiritually and numerically
Missions
(Matt.28-19-20, Mark 16:15, Acts 1:8, John 3:16, Luke 19:10)
• God’s heartbeat is for mission, across the street and around
the world, and so it should be our heart beat. We believe that
lost people matter to God, which is why He sent His Son.
Godly servant leadership
(1 Tim.3, Acts 20:28, Eph.5:25-28, 1 Peter 3:7)
• We believe godly servant leadership is God’s standard for the
home and church life. Christ is our model of servant leadership.
Such leadership is vital for the health and growth of a local
church.
United people working together
Rom.15:5, Eph.4:3-6, John 13:34-35, Heb.10:24-25, Rom.12:6-8, 1
Cor.12:4-12, 1 Peter 4:10, Eph.4:11-12)
• We believe God wants His people to live in harmonious
relationships using their gifts, skills, talents, and abilities
to serve God and others.
Effectiveness, Efficiency, Excellence
(Ephesians 6:7-8, 1 Corinthians 10:31,
Colossians.3:23-24, 1 Peter 4:11)
• We believe God deserves our best. Ecellence honours God and
inspires people. We strive for excellence not perfection, doing
the very best we can with the resources God has given us.
