The world values what you do and what you can achieve. Religion does the very same. God values who you are and who you are becoming. He desires His children to be set apart, consecrated, and growing in Christ-centered holiness.

Compassion
God sees our pain, and His awareness leads Him to alleviate it. His brow is not furrowed toward us. His arms are open in compassion.

Faithfulness
God’s faithfulness does not spring up from sentimentality or pity, but rather His covenantal love for His people. The muscle of His faithfulness is love and mercy. As He has shown His faithfulness, we turn and reflect it to the world.

Truth
We expect brokenness at every turn in life. We learn to trust reason, intuition, and experience to define what is true. But God, our anchor in reality, is Truth, and we depend on Him to make sense of and make right all that we see in this world.

Justice
Human justice is partial, prone to inconsistency, and ebbs with the cultural tides. God’s justice is perfect, impartial, and righteous. His justice restores wholeness and holds evil at bay.
