Our Beliefs

Almighty God

The loving Creator who offers a covenant relationship with all humankind

We believe in one God–Creator of all things–infinitely perfect and eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Jesus Christ

The reigning Savior who overcomes the sins of the world

We believe in Jesus Christ our Lord–the Son of God–who was born of the virgin Mary, died on the cross, and was physically resurrected, rescuing us from sin and providing us with the only way to abundant and eternal life with God.

Holy Spirit

The empowering Presence of God who in-dwells believers

We believe in the Holy Spirit–the active Presence of God–who sustains and helps disciples live as obedient followers of Christ.  We affirm the fruit of the Spirit as Christ-like characteristics that are increasingly evident in maturing disciples. We also affirm gifts given by the Spirit that uniquely equip believers to minister within the church and world.

The Holy Bible

The authoritative guide that reveals God’s plan for humanity

We believe the Scripture of the Old and New Testaments is the divinely inspired Word of God, completely trustworthy, the final and supreme authority, recorded with accuracy by authors who were inspired by God through His Spirit to perceive God’s truth.

Salvation

The gift of undeserved grace that is received through faith in Jesus Christ

We believe that humankind was created for a relationship with God, but separated from Him by sin. Only through repentance, faith and trust in Jesus Christ for salvation are persons reconciled with God.

The Church

The called community of Christ’s followers that is commissioned to transform the world

We believe that the church–the community of God’s people–is called to love God first, invite all to salvation, equip disciples for urgent mission and work together as the hands and feet of Christ in the world.

Key Scriptures:

The Great Commandment

‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’  There is no commandment greater than these. - MARK 12:29-31

The Great Commission

Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” - MATTHEW 28:18-20
