WHAT WE BELIEVE ABOUT: THE BIBLE
We believe the Bible is the inspired, written, and true Word of God, given as a gift to all humanity as the source and authority for all Christian teaching.
WHAT WE BELIEVE ABOUT: OURSELVES
We believe that as good as we try to be, it is impossible for any human being to live a perfect life or prove themselves worthy of eternal life with God.
WHAT WE BELIEVE ABOUT: THE TRINITY
We believe that there is one and only one God in the universe, and that He exists eternally in three persons: the Father (Creator), the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit.
WHAT WE BELIEVE ABOUT: JESUS CHRIST
We believe that Jesus Christ – and His virgin birth, perfect life, suffering, death, and resurrection – is the only way for mankind to be forgiven, justified, and found worthy before God.
WHAT WE BELIEVE ABOUT: BAPTISM and THE LORD’S SUPPER
We believe that – along with the Word of God – Baptism and the Lord’s Supper are the external means of grace… the channels through which God offers His amazing grace and forgiveness of sins.
WHAT WE BELIEVE ABOUT: GIVING
We believe that giving is a mere reflection of the heart of the giver. We give as an act of faith, an act of worship, and out of our desire to see the saving gospel of Jesus Christ spread to all the world.
WHAT WE BELIEVE ABOUT: SIN and SALVATION
We believe that sin is sin and must be forgiven if we are to spend eternity with God. Salvation is through Jesus Christ alone. There is no other name, no other doctrine, and no other path to God.
WHAT WE BELIEVE ABOUT: PRAYER, HEALING, and MIRACLES
We believe that prayer is an essential part of Christian life, and we pray that all things – miraculous or otherwise – be done according to God’s will, for His glory, and for our own good.
WHAT WE BELIEVE ABOUT: MARRIAGE and FAMILY
We believe marriage between one man and one woman is God’s ordained plan, and that there is no greater responsibility than instilling the love and grace of God into the lives of our children.
WHAT WE BELIEVE ABOUT: WORSHIP
We believe that we were created to worship and give God glory in all things. While styles and music may change, the act of recognizing God’s greatness, goodness, and mercy remains the same.
WHAT WE BELIEVE ABOUT: HEAVEN and HELL
We believe heaven and hell are real places. Heaven is a place of perfection reserved for all – and only – believers in Christ. Hell is a place of torment for all who do not believe.
WHAT WE BELIEVE ABOUT: EVANGELISM
We believe evangelism (sharing the gospel) is the responsibility of all Christians, and we promote tools and resources that build people up to confidently and competently talk about their faith.
