Our Distinctive

Our Distinctive

Distinctive: P.R.I.C.E.S.-E.M.E.R.G.E.

Preaching & Teaching: The first distinctive of Destiny will be the uniqueness of our preaching & teaching. Its nature will be Edifying, Encouraging, Engaging, Educationally Sound, Expository, & Exciting. The Holy Scriptures will be our final answer; and we will strive to give real people real answers from God’s divine Word. We hope to make Sunday morning in the church a more exciting time than Friday night in the world!

Relationships: Connections will be our lifeblood. Every member will be encouraged to connect to other likeminded believers so that they may all move closer to God, to each other, and to their own purposes and destiny. Authenticity will characterize our interactions. “We strive to be a place where people can know and be known, love and be loved, serve and be served, celebrate and be celebrated.” – Bill Hybels

Impactful Ministries: The various ministries Destiny will incorporate will be distinctly purposeful. They will cultivate an environment where life change is the norm (Luke 4:16). We will meet people where they are and help move them closer to Christ. Our ministries will not only equip people to address pressing needs individually, but also train and develop them to do ministry corporately. The ministries at Destiny will support the individual holistically.

Children & Youth Ministries: The Children & Youth Ministries at Destiny will partner with families to encourage, build, and invest into their greatest assets. We will facilitate children developing a good attitude about faith as we teach them about the major people, places, and themes of the Bible. However, it will not stop there, as we will encourage family values and create an atmosphere where children can develop both socially and spiritually. We are excited about the potential in your child and partnering with you towards their future.

Excellence in Worship & Approach: Our pathway to power will begin with prayer! We expect and will prepare for God to show up in mighty ways. Our worship will be sensible, awe-inspiring, winsome, energetic, and interactive. We will engage all of your senses through the creativity of God as expressed through drama, dance, poetry, and music. We will endeavor to worship in diverse ways because we are a diverse people.

Shepherding: This vital aspect of our church involves leadership intentionally building relationships with and providing spiritual care for our members. The church leadership will provide protection from spiritual dangers, spiritual direction, and facilitate spiritual growth and development. People will be valued and accepted based upon their potential—not their past.
