Scripture
The Bible and God
We believe the Bible is God’s true and trustworthy Word and the final authority for faith and life. We believe there is one true God, eternally existing as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, perfect in holiness, love, wisdom, and power.
Christ
The Son and Spirit
We believe Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man, born of a virgin, sinless in life, atoning in death, victorious in resurrection, and reigning as Lord. We believe the Holy Spirit convicts, regenerates, indwells, empowers, and sanctifies believers for holy living and faithful witness.
Life
Humanity and Hope
We believe mankind was created in God’s image yet fallen through sin and in need of salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone. We believe Christ’s church is called to worship, discipleship, fellowship, service, and gospel mission as we await His return, the resurrection, final judgment, and the fullness of God’s eternal kingdom. We practice the ordinances of baptism and the Lord’s Supper as meaningful acts of obedience and remembrance.
