We acknowledge and respect the existence of the authentic self.
We maintain that a label is a poor substitute for understanding.
We understand that humility is not humiliation, but is living with gratitude, grace, and forgiveness.
We encourage honesty with oneself and others as the basis for confidence, trust, freedom, responsibility, and reputation.
We support individual and mutual process, pace, and growth, not just content and substance.
We trust in the soul, understanding it to be a person's true character, distinct from the intrigues of personality and conduct.
We believe in the essential integrity of a person's character.
We regard everyone as morally responsible, self-determining, gifted with the freedom to choose and the power to change.
