What We Believe
We invite you to explore our beliefs and join us in our pursuit of living out our faith in boldness and passion.
01God
We believe in one God in three distinct yet unified persons: the Father, sovereign ruler who cares for His creation; the Son, Jesus Christ, eternally divine, born of a virgin, who lived sinlessly, died for our sins, rose again, and will return; and the Holy Spirit, fully divine, who inspires Scripture, convicts of sin, and guides believers.
02Scripture
The Holy Bible is the divinely inspired Word of God, revealing His truth without error. Scripture is the ultimate guide for faith and conduct, and every part of it points toward Christ.
03Jesus
Jesus Christ is the central figure of our faith, God's Word made flesh, sent as the ultimate sacrifice. His teachings call us to love, forgiveness, humility, and repentance. His resurrection proves His deity and promises eternal life to all who believe.
04Salvation
Salvation is God's gracious gift, offered to all who trust in Jesus Christ. It unfolds through regeneration, justification, sanctification, and glorification, and calls for genuine repentance and a commitment of faith.
05Baptism
Christian baptism is the immersion of a believer in water in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. It symbolizes faith in Christ's death, burial, and resurrection, and is required for church membership.
06The Holy Spirit
The Spirit inspires Scripture, convicts of sin, calls people to salvation, regenerates believers, cultivates Christian character, bestows spiritual gifts, and seals believers until the day of redemption.
07The Church
A local congregation of baptized believers observing Christ's ordinances, governed democratically under the Lordship of Christ. Pastoral leadership is entrusted to qualified men, while women serve in many other vital capacities. We also affirm the universal church as the Body of Christ.
08Prayer
Prayer is an essential part of the Christian life, our way of talking with God. We practice it individually and together, seeking guidance, strength, healing, and protection.
09The Lord's Supper
A symbolic act of obedience whereby members of the church, through partaking of the bread and the fruit of the vine, memorialize the death of the Redeemer.
