Our Vision
We are A Diverse Family of Christ Followers, Displaying the Glory of God, and Declaring the Gospel Story of the God who made us, loved us, and changed us through the gift of His Son, Jesus Christ.
Our Mission
We Love God, one another, and our community, from our hearts and that drives us to
Serve God, one another and our community, in action and with passion.
We are seeking Transformation in our own lives, in what we have experienced in church, and in the homes and families that represent our community, from Seeker to Believer, Believer to Worshiper, Worshiper to Disciple, and Disciple to Servants and Missionaries.
What We Believe
At the most basic level:
– We Believe the Bible, in its 66 books from Genesis to the Revelation, is written by men but fully inspired by God the Holy Spirit. It is both inerrant and infallible, meaning it is without error and will not lead you into error.
– We Believe in God, revealed as a Trinity; 3-in-1; Father, Son, and Spirit. God is Sovereign, Creator, and Sustainer of all things and is worthy of praise and devotion.
– We Believe that People Matter. We are all created in God’s image and while we are imperfect and troubled by a sin nature, we all deserve love, care, and value. Where we see that value, love, and care insufficient, it is our desire to display and provide for every person regardless of ethnicity, education, social or economic status.
– We Believe that we all need to be reconciled to God because our sin has separated us from Him. We believe that the only way to be reconciled to God is through faith in Jesus Christ and His work for us completed at the Cross.
– We Believe we should be an active transformational part of our community and the world, so we partner with others for those ends.
– We Believe Jesus is coming again, visibly, personally, and imminently, and we will be accountable for what we have done with him and for him.
