What We Believe

We believe in the Biblical and historically affirmed doctrines of Christianity.

We believe the Bible is God’s inspired, perfect message for mankind. It is our authority in all matters.

We believe that God exists eternally in three persons – the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

We believe that Jesus is the Son of God, that He died for our sins, rose bodily from the dead, and will return to earth to rule His kingdom.

We believe that because all people are sinners, they are separated from God. Salvation is the gift of God to all who personally put their faith in Jesus as their sin-bearer.

We believe the Holy Spirit is our teacher and guide, and He gives gifts to the church through each believer. We believe that all gifts are for today, but we do not exalt any one gift as conferring special holiness upon the recipient. We seek to walk in love – the most excellent way.

We believe the church needs “two wings to fly” – celebration (the Sunday morning worship service), and community (small groups that meet weekly).

As expressions of our faith, we practice the water baptism of believers, the Lord’s Supper as a remembrance of His death for us, the dedication of infants/children, and anointing and praying for the healing of believers.
