OUR MISSION
We exist to help everyday people learn how to become Jesus followers
OUR VISION
Our vision is to see people be with Jesus, become like Jesus and do the stuff Jesus did.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
About the Bible: We believe the entire Bible is the inspired Word of God and that people were moved by the Spirit of God to write the very words of Scripture. Therefore, we believe the Bible is without error.
About God: We believe in one God who exists in three distinct persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We also believe that Jesus Christ is the second member of the Trinity (the Son of God) who became flesh. He did this in order to reveal God to humanity and to become the Savior of the lost world.
About Humanity: We believe that all people were created in the image of God to have fellowship with him. However, they became alienated in that relationship through sinful disobedience. As a result, people are incapable of regaining the right relationship with God through their own efforts.
About SalvationWe believe that the blood of Jesus Christ shed on the cross, provides the sole basis for the forgiveness of sin. Therefore, God freely offers salvation to those who place their faith in the death and resurrection of Christ as sufficient payment for their sin.
About the Christian Life: We believe all Christians should live for Christ and not for themselves. By obedience to the Word of God and daily yielding to the Spirit of God, every believer should mature and be conformed to the image of Christ.
About the Church: We believe that the church is the body of Christ, of which Jesus Christ is the head. The members of the church are those who have trusted by faith the finished work of Christ. Finally, the purpose of the church is to glorify God by loving him and by making him known to the lost world.
