Core Behaviors

The Assemblies of God General Presbytery recently adopted the following Core Behaviors.  In October 2012, the Alaska Ministry Network adopted them as desirable Core Behaviors for the Alaska Ministry Network.

1.   PASSIONATE COMMITMENT
We turn from minimal expectations, chase excellence in everything we do, and challenge those we lead to give their best to the work of God’s Kingdom.

2.   CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT
We never stop learning and growing, but respond to every opportunity to reach our full kingdom potential.

3.   CULTURE OF HONOR
We honor those that have laid the path before us and bless those who labor among us, as we embrace a new generation before us.

4.   VISION
We believe God has a plan for every church and ministry and we are committed to discover and implement that plan.

5.   HOLY SPIRIT EMPOWERMENT
We desperately seek the power of the Holy Spirit, the only means by which we can reach the lost and fulfill the commission we’ve been given.

6.   EXTRAVAGANT FAITH
We live in full anticipation that God will do in our church and ministry those things we are willing to believe Him for and trust Him to do.

7.   OUTWARD FOCUS
We actively share in Christ’s mission to reach those outside our church rather than remain mired in the self-focus of personal preferences and comfort.

8.   ABUNDANCE PARADIGM
We embrace life with an open hand and not a clenched fist, knowing that God will provide what we need to fulfill His will.

9.   INTERDEPENDENCE
We commit to serve one another and cease to compete, so we can help each other succeed.

10.  SERVANT LEADERSHIP
We are free to serve people with a pure heart because we are secure in who God has made us to be.
