Global Fire International is changing the perspective of people who have never given a thought to church. By developing partnerships with people, rather than membership with pews, we endeavor to become a Kingdom community, extending our reach from the neighborhood to the nations. 
Leadership.
Innovation.
Fellowship.
Empowerment.

Our Leadership Team is comprised of a pastoral staff, as vision casters, along with ambassadors and assistants as vision carriers. Because we believe that every member is a minister, the five-fold ministry is both alive and active in our local assembly.

The CODE is the blueprint for how we get things done at Global Fire International. Where the mission is broad, The CODE is more personally focused. This is not only what we do, its who we are.

1. We are Great.
In 2012, we will see God do Great Exploits! (Daniel 11:32)

2. We are Loyal.
The vision for our church was given by God to Pastor D. We will aggressively defend our unity, our vision and our visionary.

3. We are Open to Change.
We look to God for direction in all things through prayer as we also commit to God through consistency in our lives.

4. We are BOLD.
We are proactive in matters of faith. We are defenders and presenters of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We will actively train and disciple new believers to become future leaders.

5. We have Audacious faith.
In order to dominate a city with the gospel of Jesus, we can’t think small. We will set impossible goals, take bold steps of faith and watch God move.

6. We Listen.
Our commitment is to know the needs, so we can meet them better.

7. We are Apple, not Google.
We are driven by excellence, not experimentation.

8. We are Starbucks, not Dun-kin Donuts.
We freely give honor to those above us, beside us and under us because of the calling and potential God has placed inside of them, not just treating them like an Average Joe.

9. We are Subway, not McDonalds.
We promise that our messages and services will be fresh and empowering, not entertaining with no substance.

10. We will not take this for granted. What we are experiencing is not normal. This is the highest calling, and we will remain grateful for God’s hand of favor.

11. We are known for what we are for. We will speak vision and life over our people. We will lift up the salvation of Jesus rather than using our platform to condemn.

12. We are NeXt!
We are a forward thinking, progressive church. We will remain relevant by keeping a current knowledge of the issues that affect the next generation.
