our Values

There is a distinct feel to all Vineyard Churches. These values and motivations don't necessarily make us who we are, but they do help us to understand why we do what we do. 


Here is what Bert Waggoner (former Vineyard National Director) had to say concerning these values: "What difference do these core values make to the life of the Vineyard? They don’t make us different. They simply refine our understanding of who we have always been and bring to the surface what really is distinctive about the Vineyard—what is at the center of our centered-set movement. They are not new values; they have always been who we are. We must nurture these core values so that they continue to be evident in every Vineyard church. These values give us the reason for our existence. They will not change. As we have defined them, they apply to all our churches in all their diversity and will endure as the Vineyard grows."
