What we believe regarding Biblical principles which glorify God and what defines us.
Centrality of the Gospel
We believe that as Jesus and His unmerited grace for us is lifted up, He restores our lives, families, community, and world (Rom. 1:16, Gal. 6:14).
Truth of the Word of God
We believe the bible is our reliable Truth source. We affirm its inerrancy in the original manuscripts and its absolute reliability and authority in our lives, faith, and practice (John 17:17, 2 Tim. 3:16-17, Rev. 21:5).
Love of the Father
We believe that through His grace, accomplished by the perfect work of Christ at the cross, we are adopted as sons and daughters of the King of the Universe, who is also our Dad. The Father sees us as He sees Jesus, the Son (Rom. 8:15-17, Gal. 4:6-7: 1 John 3:1).
Freedom and Joy in the Holy Spirit
We believe and want to operate in the power and freedom of surrendering to the person and work of the Holy Spirit. We desire to grow in our understanding and operation in the fruit (Gal. 5:22-23) and gifts (1 Cor. 12-14, Eph. 4:1-16, 1 Peter 4:7-11) of the Holy Spirit.
Fellowship (Koinonia) in the body of Christ
We believe that as we focus on Jesus and His work, we will see walls that have divided us be broken down and love for one another grow (1 Thess. 2:8, Heb. 10:24-25).
Serving as the hands and feet of Christ
We believe we are called to humbly and lovingly serve those within and outside our community (James 1:27, Deut.10:18-19, Phil 2:1-8, Mt. 22:36-40).
