About Storylines United

MISSION

Coming to know God with you, and learning to live from an inheritance that can never perish, spoil, or fade.

We invite you on a shared journey to know God in a covenantal relationship and live from our eternal inheritance. The focus of our lives isn't on temporary things but on our place in a story that reaches from everlasting to everlasting.

VISION

Faithfully formed followers participating in God’s renewing work on earth.

We envision a community that actively participates in God's work of restoration. We imagine ourselves partnering with God through acts of compassion, the pursuit of justice, and authentic faith lived out in everyday moments.

POSITION STATEMENT

Regard to apprehend.

The way a person lovingly, attentively orients toward God, someone, or something in order to come to know them, not as a detached observer but as one engaged in a covenantal relationship. Knowing is an apprehension—a bodily, relational grasping—rather than merely collecting and arranging information.

PROMISE

Serve knowers. Love neighbors.

Knowers are people on a quest to know God, themselves, others, and reality in relationship. Neighbors are everyone Christ calls a neighbor, including enemies. Love is the gift of self.
