What We Believe

God

We recognize one God that exists in three persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  He is the creator, redeemer, preserver, and ruler of the universe.  He is an intelligent, all-knowing, omni-present, spiritual, and personal being.  

Deuteronomy 6:4; John 1:1; John 1:14

The Bible is the foundation for all that we do.  Our preaching and teaching is from the Word of God.  

2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21

We will seek to praise and worship Him with all our hearts.  

John 4:23-24 

We will intentionally seek and set aside times for prayer.  We will do this in our private lives, our families, and as a church family.   

Matthew 6:7; I Thessalonians 5:17 

We believe mankind was created holy but by sin fell.  The consequence of this is that mankind became corrupt and that all have sinned.  

Romans 3:23; James 3:2

Salvation is through the righteousness and blood of Jesus Christ whom was set forth as a propitiation for our sins for those who come to Him by faith.  

John 3:16

We believe in the ordinance of Baptism by immersion in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit upon a profession of faith in Jesus Christ.  

Acts 2:38; Mark 16:16; Matthew 28:19

We observe communion or the Lord's Supper which is open to all who have put their faith and trust in Jesus Christ.  

Mark 14:22-24; 1 Corinthians 11:26

Our ministry is to serve as Jesus taught us to serve.  We encourage everyone in the church to serve loving one another.     

Ephesians 4:11-12

We encourage growth through Discipleship and provide opportunities to continue growing in Christ.  

Ephesians 4:7-15; Hebrews 6:1-12

We will share the Gospel of Jesus Christ regardless of race, ethnicity, or economic status in our local community and throughout the world.  Evangelism and Missions is essential to what we do.  

Matthew 28:19-20; II Corinthians 5:18-20
