God and His Glory
We are a God-centered church, captivated by God’s ultimate pursuit—His own glory. Our confidence is not in ourselves, but in His sovereign work. It is through this that we experience the true blessing of God.

God’s Truth
The Bible is not merely a guidebook—it is a living authority. It shapes our preaching, teaching, and every aspect of daily life through its enduring truth and wisdom

Gospel Freedom
The Gospel of grace—that sinners are forgiven and restored through the work of Jesus Christ—is not only what brings us into relationship with God, but also what grows us to maturity.

True Worship
Worship is at the heart of our humanity. We were created to glorify God and enjoy Him forever. Christian worship redirects our hearts away from trivial and artificial idols, and returns us to the Living God.

The Church and Community
The Christian life is not meant to be lived in isolation but within the context of the Church. Saint Stephen’s Chapel is both an organization of people and a living organism—the body of Christ—called into authentic community.

The City and Culture
Christ came not merely to establish a church, but to inaugurate a Kingdom. Our church does not exist for itself, but to serve God’s greater purpose in the world. We are called to impact our city and culture for His glory.

Openness and Warmth
We are committed to reflecting not only the Word of Jesus but also the way of Jesus. Everything we do must be marked by humility, compassion, and a listening heart—especially toward those who are not yet part of our community.
