We aspire to make much of Christ in all that we do (1 Peter 4:11). All of Christ for all of life to all the world.
We believe in the orthodox Christian faith that was once and for all entrusted to the saints (Jude 3). Pastors in particular are responsible for teaching in accordance with this faith. Therefore, our pastor teaches in accordance with and not contrary to these creeds and confessions: The Apostles Creed, The Nicean Creed,, and The Second London Baptist Confession of 1689.
Without Jesus, we are guilty of tremendous sins before God and are separated from him (Romans 3:23). But because of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, all who are born again will inherit eternal life (Ephesians 2:4-5). Christians call this act of grace “the gospel”, or “the good news.”
We believe that salvation is not merely a one-time act, but a life-long and continuous walk with God. The gospel-life continues to repent of sins and trust in Jesus.
God has not saved us and left us to figure out life on our own. We believe that God has revealed his will through the Bible. In the Scriptures God has given us everything we need for life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3-4).
Because of these convictions, we value expository preaching through books of the Bible. We encourage our members to center their relationships with one another and their families around the word of God.
We believe that one of the primary evidence of God’s grace in a Christian’s life is how we relate with other Christians. (John 13:34-45). Since Jesus has shattered the barriers between Christians, we seek to live in harmony with one another (Ephesians 2:14-22). We share the love God has given us through hospitality and generosity to any and all. As we create the culture of the kingdom, we want that culture to show how loving and generous our King is. And we do that the way He does--with a meal!
We believe that the good news of Jesus must be shared among our communities and among the peoples of the world (Matthew 28:18-20). We support evangelistic efforts across the globe and in our neighborhoods so that we can make much of Jesus!
