Trivergence
The coming together of Gospel, Word, and Spirit From the prefix tri (“three”) and the word convergence (coming together). Scripture portrays a synergistic unity between all three.
Motivated by the Gospel
We pursue transformation that is Christ-centered and grace-based.
Grounded in the Word
We embrace Bible study, expositional preaching and robust theology.
Empowered by the Spirit
We anticipate that at any moment God could use any believer as his conduit for grace.
A three-legged stool has balance and strength.
Remove a leg, and the resulting imbalance brings weakness.
- It is important not to minimize the Word. To emphasize Spirit at the expense of Word can lead to a disorderly practice of spiritual gifts. To emphasize Gospel at the expense of Word can lead to disciples devoid of spiritual depth.
- It is important not to minimize the Gospel. To emphasize Word at the expense of Gospel can lead to legalism. To emphasize Spirit at the expense of Gospel can lead to prosperity theology.
- It is important not to minimize the Spirit. To emphasize Word at the expense of Spirit can lead to a dry, academic Christianity. To emphasize Gospel at the expense of Spirit can lead to an insider Christianity devoid of missional engagement.
To be trivergent is to prioritize—not minimize—the synergistic unity of Gospel, Word and Spirit. When all three are present, spiritual gifts strengthen the church, disciples go deep in God, grace permeates the culture, Christ is central, relationship with Jesus is vibrant, and missional engagement thrives.
