Our Culture
We Love Truthfully
True Love knows no color, nationality, socio-economic status, or past mistakes. We give love as generously as we have received it.
We Serve Purposefully
Everyone has a gift that God has given them to serve the World. We want every believer to discover and use that gift to serve the world.
We Participate Completely
We don’t hold back in anything we do. If it’s worth doing at all, it’s worth giving our absolute best to do it. We are not spectators, we are participators.
We Believe Impossibly
God is bigger than our imaginations and is beyond our limitations. We dream Big because Nothing is impossible for those that believe.
We Connect Intentionally
Real life change happens in the context of relationships. We are all better together. So it is important to us that we grow closer to each other as we grow closer to Him.
We Focus Outwardly
Just as Jesus was sent to seek and to save those who are lost, it is our responsibility tell people about His tremendous Love for All.
We Give Generously
God pours out His blessings into an open hand, not a closed fist. Plus, it feels good to give!
We Are Biblically Serious
The live out the serious message and instruction of God’s word. We commit to growing in our knowledge so that we can better apply His word in the way we live.
Our Beliefs
God is the Creator and Supreme Ruler of the Universe
There is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and co-eternal.
The Holy Spirit is Alive in You
The Holy Spirit is the promise of the Father, sent by Jesus after His Ascension, to empower God’s church and draw people into a relationship with Jesus.
Jesus Died for Us
Born of a virgin, Jesus lived and walked the earth sinless and blameless. He died on a cross as a sacrifice for all of our sins. Three days later, He rose from the dead to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He then ascended to Heaven where He sits at the right hand of the Father and will return to earth again to reign as King.
Salvation Is God’s Free Gift, But We Must Accept It
No amount of good deeds will wash away our sins. We are saved by grace, through faith in Jesus Christ. Only by trusting in Jesus Christ as the person that paid the ultimate price for our sins can we be saved from sin’s penalty. When we turn from our self-centered life and surrender it to Jesus in faith, we are saved.
The Bible is God’s Word to Us
God used human authors, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, to write the Bible. The Holy Bible – and only the Bible – is the authoritative Word of God. It alone is the final authority in determining all doctrinal truths. It is inspired, infallible, and inerrant.
We Are God’s Creation
God made us in His image, but everyone is stained by a nature of disobedience, called sin. Sin separates us from God and causes problems in our life. But God loves His creation so much that He sent His son, Jesus to save us from the eternal effects of our sin.
We Believe in the Holy Bible
In its original writing, the Holy Bible is the inspired, dependable, and without error, Word of God. It alone is the final authority in determining how we live our lives.
“Our God, Three in One”
There is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and co-eternal.
God Is Our Redeemer
Man was originally created good and honorable, but decided to disobey God, which separated him from God and His original plan for man. Man’s only hope of restoring his relationship with God is in Jesus Christ.
Jesus Christ is the Son of God
Jesus Christ is God the Son, born of a virgin. On earth, Jesus lived a life free of sin and offered Himself as the sacrifice for all of our sins by dying on a cross. He rose 3 days later and will someday return to earth to reign as King.
We Can’t Save Ourselves. Only God Can
We are saved by grace, through faith in Jesus Christ (His death, burial, and resurrection). Salvation is a gift from God, not a result of our good works or of any human efforts.
But First We Must Repent
Repentance is the commitment to turn away from sin in every area of our lives and to follow Christ. This allows us to receive His redemption and to be regenerated by the Holy Spirit.
Becoming Christ-like Takes a Lifetime
Sanctification is the ongoing process of obeying God’s Word and His Spirit in order to complete the development of Christ’s character in us. It is through the ministry of the Holy Spirit and the Word of God that a Christian can live a godly life.
Spiritual Gifts Still Manifest in Believers
The Holy Spirit is manifested through spiritual gifts to build and sanctify the church, demonstrate the validity of the resurrection, and confirm the power of the Gospel. The Bible’s list of these gifts is not necessarily exhaustive, and the gifts may occur in various combinations.
Heaven & Hell Are Real
Heaven is the eternal dwelling place for all Christ followers. God will send unbelievers to Hell, (a place of eternal torment) originally created for the Devil and the Fallen Angels and not for man.
God Wants You to Live Victoriously
It is the Father’s will for believers to become whole, healthy and successful in all areas of life. Though many may not receive the full benefits of God’s will while on Earth, Christ-followers still have the opportunity to seek all Christ provided for them.
We Believe In Water Baptism
Christ commanded His people to be baptized in water in the Name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Jesus Will Return Someday
Jesus Christ will physically and visibly return to Earth for the second time to establish His Kingdom. This will occur at a date undisclosed by the scriptures.
