Core Values
What they are, where they come from, how truth anchors them, and how to use them — Story and Scripture tracks.
Series overview
03 – Core Values builds the fence: fundamental beliefs and guiding principles that keep a Berzerker’s life in a safe, productive yard — and keep the foxes out. Lessons come in paired tracks: Story life narrative and Scripture.
From the library
Core values are “etched into your spirit” — they form identity, set direction, and refuse conformity to whatever fad the world is selling. You base goals on values; values also decide how you chase those goals (compassion won’t treat people as expendable).
On the Scripture side, love of God and neighbor (Matthew 22:37–39) sits at the center — “to want what is best for others,” with worship and trust toward God first.
