Life-Giving Holiness

Life-Giving Holiness

GOD'S CALL TO HOLINESS was never meant to be a burden, but a gift that liberates us
for life that is truly life by delivering us from the destructive power of sin.
All who are born again are made right with God by the finished work of Jesus Christ
and called to experience the fullness of the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit.
Forgiven and filled, we approach life with confidence that we are acceptable to God
even as He continues to transform our character and behavior to become more and
more like Jesus. Life-giving holiness, then, is the fruit of full surrender to the loving
reign of God over every aspect of our lives, establishing within us love that is truly
love.
Leaving behind the legalism that once hindered our movement, The Free Methodist
Way invites every believer to embrace the transforming work of the Holy Spirit that
empowers us to love and serve God and others in joyful obedience.

Introducing the Free Methodist Way

Free Methodists are first and foremost a Kingdom people. Yet throughout church history God has raised up distinct movements like ours to enrich the larger body of Christ. Building on the legacies of John Wesley and B.T. Roberts, but always discerning where God is moving today, our identity is shaped by values that are both historical and aspirational. Of the many values we hold dear, these five lie at the heart of our movement. We view them as a whole, each one bringing necessary balance to the others. In a time of rising polarization in our nation, we resist the pull toward both fundamentalism and theological liberalism — not out of a spirit of compromise, but from a radical commitment to what Wesley called “the middle way.” It is a path that takes the whole gospel seriously and continually calls us to “both/and” convictions in an “either/or” world.

Love-Driven Justice

LOVE IS THE WAY WE DEMONSTRATE GOD'S HEART FOR JUSTICE by valuing the image of God in all men, women, and children, acting with compassion toward the oppressed, resisting oppression, and stewarding Creation. We devote ourselves to our founders deep convictions around matters of injustice as they took their stand against the evils of slavery, the oppression of the poor, the marginalization of women, and the abuse of power in the church. Our heart for justice continues and expands today, fueled by God's holy love for the unborn, the vulnerable, oppressed, marginalized, and people of all races and ethnicities. The Free Methodist Way is not only to realize a better society, but that all may be reconciled to God and one another in ways that reflect God's just character.

Christ-Compelled Multiplication

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST the message He proclaimed, the life He lived, and the ministry He modeled & set into motion a redemptive movement destined to fill the whole earth. Jesus' approach to discipleship was primarily a relational one in which He poured His life into a few with the full expectation that they would follow His example. His aim was not merely the transmission of information, but the transformation of lives by empowering those who followed Him to do what He had been doing. His mission is now our mission. We believe this redemptive movement of multiplication applies to every believer and should permeate our Free Methodist culture at every level: the found reaching the lost, disciples making disciples, leaders developing leaders, churches planting churches, and movements birthing movements. The Free Methodist Way is to see God's kingdom expand exponentially as ordinary people are equipped by God's power to do extraordinary things. Follow the links below to learn more about Valley Chapel
