http://www.cityheartjackson.comWe are declaring that we are God’s people, we are His Church, Jackson is His City, and we are rising.
Rising = Ascension
Rising: Ascending spiritually into God’s presence, united with God, fully integrated into His Kingdom, according to His Will, His Word, His Way.
Into God’s Presence is where we are called. It is where His glory is revealed, where transformation occurs, where his divine instructions are downloaded and where power is transferred.
Preparation To Arise & Shine
We Follow Jesus - Jesus is at the center of all we do. He’s the model that we follow and the Savior that we all need. In our culture, everyone who leads is known for their willingness and ability to follow.
It looks like sacrificing your time for Him.
We’re All Heart - No matter what we look like, what we’ve been through or where we’ve come from, we are loved by God. We choose to love what God loves. We love our City and every heart within it. In our culture, we allow love to lead every encounter, interaction, and decision.
Rising is a process, but we declare that we are in the process.
To love is to sacrifice.
We Live To Serve - We’re always looking for ways to serve others, recognizing that jumping in to help is more rewarding than sitting on the sidelines. In our culture, everyone has a place to use their gifts and talents. There are no bench players.
You have a calling - God wants to use you
Serve instead of just being served.
We Give and Grow - We are devoted to generosity, following the pattern of God. We believe giving is an avenue for growth in our personal lives and within our City whether it’s our time, talent, or treasure. In our culture, generosity is infectious. We all jump at opportunities to bless others.
Receiving and giving are best done with open hands.
Open hands represent generosity - (which is the core basis for how the economy runs in the Kingdom of God)
God is the ultimate giver - (Jehovah Jireh - our provider) The provision and resources that we need for life are found in His Hand.
By giving, we break the stronghold of the poverty mentality (crippled, ridiculed, poor, barren, forgotten, bottom)
1. There is a tendency to glorify the broken condition.
2. You want to hold tightly to everything instead of using it for its true purpose

We Strive To Get It Right - Our message won’t change, but we’ll consistently evaluate ways to improve our methods. In our culture, we love flexibility; understanding that the right way may be different than how it's always been done.
1. I admit that I have not arrived.
2. Forget what is behind.
3. Strain toward what is ahead.
4. Press on toward the goal set by Christ Jesus.
5. Ask God for clarity.

You have not arrived!
Humility
We Honor Others - We are faithful to honor one another above ourselves, reflecting the love Jesus shows to us. In our culture, we uphold honor for everyone in all interactions.
Honor is most needed where differences exist.
Diversity is the design of the Creator.
Our mission is unity.
We’re All In: We’re passionate people. We worship God, and we love one another with everything we’ve got.
You have a purpose, a calling, a work to do.
Be passionate about our collective purpose.
