We lay the foundation for this cultural expression by personally living out Gateway’s values and instilling them in all who work alongside us on our staff. Our values can be described by three words: spiritual, professional, and relational. By upholding these values and our social covenant, we can better serve the kingdom through our vision, mission, and purpose.
Spiritual
Being spiritual is having God-centered influence grounded in scriptural truth and empowered by the Holy Spirit. We value being teachable and humble, fostering a culture of kindness, trust, loyalty, and honor. We are also servant-hearted as we focus on building the kingdom and being full of faith to hear, believe, and obey God.
Professional
Being professional is producing high-quality work in a productive manner while operating in a culture of excellence, not perfectionism, to support Gateway’s mission. We steward Gateway’s vision and purpose while upholding high leadership standards regardless of position and lead with love, remaining above reproach in our conduct.
Relational
Being relational is valuing relationships over results. We show integrity by being humble, honest, trustworthy, and accountable to one another and the Lord. We are unified in supporting the needs of our organization—collaborating together, being approachable in every situation, and having fun along the way! We are also compassionate—always extending mercy and grace balanced with truth.
