Brookside Church Staff Codes
* Addendum A

We Love Building others up.
We give each other the benefit of the doubt. We look for the good in each other. When I don’t understand what you’re doing, I let trust fill in the gaps.

We Love breaking status quo.
We choose to dream and be visionaries, looking forward to the future God has for us. And we ruthlessly eliminate every form of comfortable complacency.

We Love Healthy Conflict.
We keep short accounts with each other. If I am hurt or offended, you and I are going to talk about it or let it go, but we will not let it linger.

We love being vulnerable.
We choose to honor each other and give grace to each other’s shortcomings or failures. We choose to be real and authentic with each other, even if we must push through difficulty.
