Our Beliefs

We believe that the Bible is God’s perfect and complete Word to all people at all times.

We believe that God is the Creator and Sustainer of all things, and yet He is closer to us than we can imagine.

We believe that God is just, and that He loves the whole world.

We believe that all people have sinned against God and His punishment is eternal separation from Him.

We believe that God has revealed Himself perfectly through Jesus, who was born to a virgin, lived a sinless life, experienced death and separation from God on the cross for the sins of the world, and rose from the grave three days later.

We believe that only through faith in Christ can we be forgiven and accepted by God.

We believe that at the moment of faith, the Holy Spirit is united with the new believer. He is a guide to spiritual truth and a guarantee of eternal life with Him in Heaven.

We believe that baptism by immersion is one of a believer’s most visible ways to communicate their faith in Christ to the world.

We believe that God wants every believer to be a part of the worship, community, and mission of a local church.
