Living What We Believe

Our Values

Our values are the everyday expression of our faith—how we live out what God’s Word teaches. Each value flows from Scripture and shapes the way we worship, serve, and love others. They keep us aligned with God’s mission and grounded in His truth.

  • The Authority of Scripture

    We believe the Bible is the inspired, inerrant Word of God and our ultimate authority for life and faith. (2 Timothy 3:16–17)

  • Worship in Spirit and Truth

    We gather to glorify God through heartfelt worship that exalts Jesus and is rooted in biblical truth. (John 4:23–24)

  • Prayerful Dependence

    We seek God’s direction, provision, and power in all we do through continual prayer. (Philippians 4:6–7)

  • Verse-by-Verse Bible Teaching

    We are committed to teaching God’s Word in context so we can know Him, follow Him, and live for Him. (Acts 20:27)

  • The Gospel of Jesus Christ

    We proclaim salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone and call all people to repentance. (Ephesians 2:8–9)

  • Making Disciples

    We are called to help people grow from knowing Jesus, to following Him, to living fully for Him. (Matthew 28:19–20)

  • The Work of the Holy Spirit

    We rely on the Holy Spirit for guidance, transformation, and the empowering of spiritual gifts. (Acts 1:8)

  • Loving Community

    We walk together in unity, encouraging, serving, and caring for one another as the family of God. (John 13:34–35)

  • Living on Mission

    We live to make Jesus known locally and globally, sharing the hope of the Gospel with the world. (Romans 10:14–15)

    We give because God first gave to us. Through generosity, we partner in His mission—meeting needs, supporting ministry, and advancing the Gospel locally and globally. (2 Corinthians 9:6–8)

Rooted in God’s Word

Our Beliefs

Our beliefs are the foundation of who we are as a church. They are anchored in the Bible, guided by the Holy Spirit, and centered on Jesus Christ. These truths define our message, direct our mission, and call us to live in a way that honors God.

  • The Bible

    We believe the Bible, consisting of the 66 books of the Old and New Testaments, is the inspired and inerrant Word of God, the final authority for all matters of faith and life. (2 Timothy 3:16–17; 2 Peter 1:21)

  • The One True God

    We believe there is one God who created all things and rules over all, perfect in holiness, love, and justice. (Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 45:5–6)

  • Jesus

    We believe Jesus is fully God and fully man, born of a virgin, sinless in life, and the only Savior of mankind through His death, burial, and resurrection. (John 1:1,14; 1 Corinthians 15:3–4)

  • Holy Spirit

    We believe the Holy Spirit convicts of sin, regenerates the believer, and empowers the church through spiritual gifts. (John 16:8; Acts 1:8)

  • The Trinity

    We believe in one God who eternally exists in three distinct Persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—equal in nature, glory, and power, yet distinct in role and relationship. (Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14)

  • Salvation

    We believe salvation is by grace through faith alone in Jesus Christ, apart from works. (Ephesians 2:8–9)

  • Baptism & Communion

    We believe water baptism and the Lord’s Supper are ordinances given by Christ as outward expressions of inward faith. (Matthew 28:19; 1 Corinthians 11:23–26)

  • The Church

    We believe the church is the body of Christ, made up of all believers, and is called to worship, fellowship, discipleship, and mission. (Ephesians 4:4–6; Acts 2:42)

  • Christ’s Return & Our Blessed Hope

    We believe Jesus will return personally and imminently. Before the Tribulation, believers will be raptured to meet Him. He will then return to reign, raising the dead and bringing final judgment. (Matthew 24:29–31; 1 Thessalonians 4:13–18; 1 Thessalonians 5:9; 2 Peter 2:7–9; Revelation 3:10)
