Where these principles can be followed and used to support a policy position, we either collectively support the position in question, or we acknowledge the perspective to be valid. We are open for all to challenge the collective, or individuals within the society, when they advocate for positions which do not align with the principles below. 

1. Eager Capacity for Fidelity: We prioritize shalom for humankind, which mandates that we always keep our hands open for our neighbors to join us, regardless of past opposition, attack, or ill-will. Every engagement includes an underlying desire for the health of the other. Ultimately we will only achieve this health when God is seen as God is: loving, kind, compassionate, and present. Our creation of a healthy community hinges on our capacity to maintain love for every person in our vicinity, offering quick forgiveness and a helping hand to disciple them into maturity. This is a critical posture for creating a society of public justice.  
2. Justice for All: We accept no compromise. All people deserve to be treated with justice. Any situation in which the powerful profit or benefit at the expense of the vulnerable will not be accepted. Justice requires for all our neighbors to live in security, dignity, and well-being, and we support rhetoric and policy that help craft this reality. We oppose all forms of abuse, oppression, and extortion of the vulnerable. 
3. Neighbor Love: In Gal 5:14 we see that the entire law is summed up in the command, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” At the core of this command is an awareness that the highest love of self is expressed in pursuit of shalom, true peace. To love my neighbor as myself means that I want them to achieve shalom as well. Shalom includes security, dignity, and well-being. Any law or position which hampers the progress of universal security, dignity, and well-being must be opposed. Our community is best when we join together to bring these to all.
