Our Mission...

We are building fully devoted followers of Jesus.

Our Vision...

A church for you no matter who you are, what you have done, or where you have been.

Our Values

Authentic

It is our desire to model Jesus to a world in need of hope. In everything He did, Jesus was authentic. His love for people was true. He spoke boldly when He needed to and showed patience and compassion to hurting people. In the same manner, our community of faith is authentic. We have a true love for those that God loves. We speak boldly and we demonstrate patience and compassion with all.  

Relevant

The message of Jesus is timeless and transformational. Culture and society will change. We will remain relevant to the culture while not compromising the life-giving truth found in the words of Scripture. We will be in the world, we will not be of the world. We are be swayed by fads and trends but we recognize the need to relate to our communities. As Paul writes, “…I have become all things to all men so that by all possible means I might save some.”

Community

It’s important to spend time alone with God, soaking up His Word. But He didn’t intend for us to live in isolation. He specifically designed us to crave—and thrive in—relationship with others. We’re our best selves when we’re experiencing life’s highs and lows with other believers. That means everyone, whether you’re single or married, needs community. Community is encouraging. Community fosters love, happiness, fun, and joy. Community laughs and weeps together. Community is life-giving.

Our Ministry Philosphy...

In essentials, we have unity...

There is one Body and one Spirit... there is one Lord, one faith and one baptism, and one God and Father of us all.

Ephesians 4:4-6

In non-essentials, we have liberty...

Accept him whose faith is weak, without passing judgement on disputable matters... stop passing judgement on one another... each of us will give an account to God... so whatever you believe about these things (non-essentials) keep between yourself and God.

Romans 14

In all things, love.

If I have faith to move mountains but I have no love, I amount to nothing at all.

1 Corinthians 13

Our Beliefs...

Jesus is the one and only Son of God, who died for our sins and arose from the dead.

1 Corinthians 15:1-8 & John 3:16

The Bible is the inspired Word of God.  A lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path.

2 Timothy 3:16 & Psalm 119:105

Every person has worth as a creation of God, but that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.

Romans 3:23

Forgiveness of sins and the promise of eternal life are available to those who surrender to Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.

John 3:16

Those who surrender to Christ as Lord and Savior should repent of sin, confess their faith, and be baptized.

Romans 10:9 & Acts 2:38

The Church is the Body of Christ on earth, empowered by the Holy Spirit, and exists to be witnesses to the lost and edify and saved.

Ephesians 4:1-16

Jesus Christ will one day return to earth and reign forever as King of kings and Lord of lords.

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
