REALITY CHURCH CORE VALUES

Live in Reality

We value humility and honesty. We are vulnerable about our areas of brokenness, sincere in our praise and encouragement, and generous in grace and forgiveness.

People are Priority

People are God’s prized possession and we treat them as such. We aim to be radical in our love and hospitality.

Disciples of Jesus

God is our greatest treasure. Our mission is to be disciples who love Him, become like Him, and do what He did.

Crazy Like Jesus

We are willing to take risks and tear down any unnecessary walls that prevent people from knowing the real Jesus.

Beyond Us

People’s eternities are at stake. This reality moves us to look beyond our church walls. We are passionate about inviting and including anyone who wants to pursue Jesus.

Naturally Supernatural

We seek to follow the Holy Spirit’s leading in our moment-by-moment life. His presence and power is our priority not just on Sunday, but every day.

You’ve Got Something

We believe every person has something to offer, to give, to be. We are dedicated to equipping and releasing those pursuing Jesus into their calling and purpose.
