Bring your questions. Bring your brokenness. Bring your mess. Come join us as we find freedom and joy abundantly in the life of Jesus Christ!
What We Believe
Jesus is the Son of God, sent from heaven to earth, who lived a perfect life, who died in our place and rose from the dead to save all those who believe in him. He has promised to return, so we wait on him. The Bible teaches that Jesus is the only way to salvation. (1 Corinthians 15:3-5; Acts 1:11; John 14:6; John 3:16; John 1:12; Romans 10:13)
The Bible is God’s written word, inspired by God and profitable for teaching, reproof, correction and for training in righteousness, that the man/woman of God may be complete, equipped for every good work. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)
The Church is the Bride of Christ, the fellowship of believers, committed to gathering together regularly for the worship of God. (Ephesians 5:22-33)
We receive salvation and are saved by grace through faith, not by works, but by the gift of God. Jesus is the only way to God. If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Ephesians 2:8; John 14:6; Romans 10:9; 10:10-13)
The Purpose of Church
To gather believers for worship of Jesus Christ, equip the saints for ministry, discipleship, evangelism and fellowship in order to take the good news of the gospel to the world, fulfilling the great commission, glorifying God by loving Him and loving our neighbors. (Matthew 28:18-20; Hebrews 10:24-25)
