Church Values
What are people looking for in a church? This interesting post was posted by new doctoral student at Fuller Seminary, C. Wess Daniels. Wess is a Quaker (Friend), which should please my friend Bob Ramsey, to no end. Wess has some core values, and secondary values.
Core Values
- Jesus-Oriented Practices and Theology
- Surrounding Community Involvement
- Equality of Humanity
- Peace church
- Tradition Relationship
- Move of the Spirit
Secondary Values
- Position to American Politics
- Creativity Oh Yes The Ancient Arts
- Small church
- Non-hieracrchical Leadership
- Sacramental Life
Sounds sort of eclectic, doesn't it? Some of this is typical of Quakers, some of it is typical of Presbyterians.

Thanks for linking to the post. I hadn't considered the how some of these corresponded with Presbyterian values...this is really cool.
