The Vineyard Genetic Code

At a pastors conference in September 1992, John Wimber taught on ten areas of ministry that are essential to churches in the Vineyard movement. John called these areas a genetic code because our emphasis on pursuing them are what identify us as a family. A Vineyard experience includes:

• clear, accurate, biblical teaching

• contemporary worship in the freedom of the Holy Spirit

• the gifts of the Holy Spirit in operation

• an active small group ministry

• ministry to the poor, widows, orphans and those who are broken

• physical healing with an emphasis on signs and wonders as seen in the book of Acts

• a commitment to missions - church planting at home and world missions abroad

• unity within the whole Body of Christ; relationship with other churches

• evangelistic outreach

• equipping the saints in areas such as discipleship, ministry, serving, giving, finances,family, and so on.
