The Values of CityKids

At the root of CityKids are the following Biblical values:

• Knowing God, being sown with the seed of God's Word. (Luke 8:15, 2 Corinthians 9:6)
• Growth is the result of spending time in God's Word, prayer and fellowship. (Psalm 1:13, John 15:16)
• Growth comes only from God (1 Corinthians 3:5-7, John 15:5)
• Fruit of the Spirit is the evidence of growth. (John 15:16, Galatians 5:22-23)
• All disciples are commanded to "preach the good news" of Jesus and to make more disciples for him. (Matthew 28:19-20, Mark 16:15)
