The Bible
We believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God. It is our foundation for faith and life, revealing who God is and how we are called to live.
Scripture: Psalm 119:105; Proverbs 30:5; 2 Timothy 3:16–17; 2 Peter 1:20–21
Scripture: Psalm 119:105; Proverbs 30:5; 2 Timothy 3:16–17; 2 Peter 1:20–21
The Trinity
We believe there is one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. They are co-equal in nature and essence, yet distinct in person and function. In the work of redemption, the Son submits to the Father, and the Spirit testifies to and glorifies the Son. God is the Creator of all things and is perfectly loving, holy, and just.

Jesus Christ
We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God, fully God and fully man. He lived a sinless life, died on the cross for our sins, and rose again, defeating death and offering new life to all who believe. Jesus is the only way to salvation and will return again.

Humanity & Sin
We believe all people are created in the image of God with inherent value and purpose. Because of one man’s disobedience, sin entered the world, and humanity was separated from God and remains in need of salvation.
Scripture: Genesis 1:27; Isaiah 59:2; Romans 3:23; 5:12
Scripture: Genesis 1:27; Isaiah 59:2; Romans 3:23; 5:12
Salvation
We believe salvation is a gift of God’s grace, received through faith in Jesus Christ. Through repentance and faith, we are forgiven, made new, and brought into a restored relationship with God.
Scripture: Romans 10:9–13; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Ephesians 2:8–9
Scripture: Romans 10:9–13; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Ephesians 2:8–9
The Holy Spirit
We believe the Holy Spirit is active and present in the world today. He is the personal presence of God, who empowers believers to live a Spirit-filled life, guides us into truth, and equips us with spiritual gifts for ministry. He comforts, convicts the world of sin, and reminds us of the truth and victory we have in Jesus.
We believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit and that the gifts of the Spirit are available and active in the Church today.
Scripture: John 14:16-17; 26-27; John 16:7-11; Acts 1:8; Acts 2:4; 1 Corinthians 12:4–11

The Church
We believe the Church is God’s primary way of reaching the world today. She is the body of Christ, called to worship God, build community, and make a difference in the world.
Scripture: Matthew 16:18; Acts 2:42–47; Ephesians 4:11–13; Hebrews 10:24-25
Scripture: Matthew 16:18; Acts 2:42–47; Ephesians 4:11–13; Hebrews 10:24-25
Baptism & Communion
We believe water baptism by immersion is a command of Christ and a public declaration of faith in Jesus. While it does not save us, it is an important step of obedience that reflects the new life we have in Him.
Scripture: Matthew 28:19; Romans 6:4
We believe communion is a sacred practice that symbolizes Jesus’ sacrifice and serves as a remembrance of what He has done for us. Through it, we reflect on His death and celebrate the new life we have in Him.

Christian Living
We believe God calls every believer to live a life of faith, integrity, and purpose. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, we grow in holiness, love others, and reflect Jesus in our everyday lives.

Scripture: Romans 12:1–2; Galatians 5:22–24; Colossians 3:17; 1 Thessalonians 4:3-8
Marriage & Sexuality
We believe God created humanity as male and female and designed marriage as a covenant between one man and one woman, reflecting Christ’s relationship with the Church.
We believe God designed sex as a gift to be expressed within the covenant of marriage, and that all people are created in His image and deeply loved by Him.
Scripture: Genesis 1:27; Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:4–6; Ephesians 5:31–32

Scripture: Genesis 1:27; Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:4–6; Ephesians 5:31–32
Eternity
We believe that eternity is real and that every person will spend eternity either in relationship with God or separated from Him. Heaven is the promise of eternal life with God for those who trust in Jesus, and Jesus will one day return to fulfill all things.
