I am working on a list of core values that will help in the overarching direction of the student ministry that I lead...my thought is that there would be a series of images that would correspond to the various core values, so that it is not simply a series of words or sentences, but that they would be pictures that would conjure up certain emotions or thoughts...here is what I have so far; please let me know what you think or if you have other ideas that would communicate the values more effectively:
We Value:
- Wrecking balls, not mortar - (I don't have a one- or two-word phrase to go along with this one, but the idea is that we want to tear down walls between students, not build them up)
- Welcome mats, not deadbolts - Hospitality
- The path, not the finish line - Journey
- Sugar, not Sweet'n Low - Authenticity
- Potluck dinners, not TV dinners - Community
- Closets, not home theaters - Prayer
- M&Ms, not Hershey Bars - Diversity
- Flashlights, not darkness - the Bible
- The body, not the building - the Church
- The person, not the number - Individuals
- Marathons, not sprints - Longevity
