Abiding in Jesus is the foundation of everything we do. Our lives, our worship, and our mission flow from intimacy with Him — not striving, not performance. Fruitfulness is not something we manufacture; it’s the natural outcome of staying connected to the Vine. At Abide, we remain rooted in Christ and continually return to His presence as our source of life. Whether in moments of worship or behind the scenes, our first response is always to abide in Him.

Worship flows from truth. We believe the Word of God is our unshakable foundation — it shapes our values, guides our decisions, and fuels our worship. We don’t just sing about truth; we live under it. We build our lives on the authority of Scripture, knowing that God’s Word is alive, active, and trustworthy. Every gathering, every teaching, every song begins with what He has already spoken.

Worship is more than music — it’s a lifestyle. Our gatherings are built on Spirit-led, authentic expressions of love for Jesus. We’re not here to perform or impress; we’re here to respond to the presence of God in spirit and in truth. In every lyric and every moment, our desire is to glorify Jesus and invite others into genuine communion with Him. We value raw, reverent, joy-filled worship that flows from the heart.

Worship is not just an expression, but a response — one that leads to repentance, renewal, and spiritual growth. As we behold Him, we become more like Him — not just in what we sing, but in how we live. We welcome conviction, the refining work of the Spirit, and the continual invitation to be shaped by truth. Worship is a surrendered life, made new in His presence.

We were never meant to walk alone. At Abide, we believe real growth happens in real relationships. We value spiritual friendship, intentional community, and doing life side by side. We want everyone who walks into Abide to feel seen, known, and loved. It’s not about filling a room — it’s about walking together in Christ.

Abide is like a gas station that fills — but we’re not meant to stay parked there. We gather to be filled in His presence so we can be sent out to bear fruit in our homes, cities, and callings. We believe in a multiplying movement: disciples making disciples, worshipers being sent into the world. Our gatherings are meant to ignite Kingdom purpose, not just personal experience. We exist to carry the Kingdom wherever God leads us.

We follow the example of Jesus, who led with authority but walked in surrender. We carry a teachable spirit, eager to grow, and willing to be refined. Our hunger is not for a platform, but for His presence. In every season, we choose character over hype and His presence over our preference.

Before anything else, we pray. Prayer is not just something we do — it’s who we are. It’s how we commune with God, stay aligned with His heart, and live in dependence on His Spirit. Prayer invites heaven into earth and forms us in His presence. Every room we lead in is first a room of prayer.

We follow the example of Jesus, who didn’t come to be served but to serve. We believe leadership looks like laying down our lives — in the unseen, in the ordinary, and in the uncomfortable. We choose servanthood over self-promotion and love over platform. At Abide, we lead by going low, putting others first, and pouring ourselves out for the sake of others — and ultimately, for the sake of someone knowing Jesus better.

We believe creativity is worship. Every design, sound, lyric, and atmosphere we offer is an opportunity to glorify God. We don’t create for performance — we create for ways people can meet Jesus in new ways.  Creativity is not about being impressive; it’s about being faithful stewards of the beauty He placed within us. Everything we offer, we offer back to Him.
