Our beliefs

What we hold in common

We believe the Bible is God’s inspired Word — true, trustworthy and our final authority for what we believe and how we live.

2 Timothy 3:16–17

We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, equal in power and glory.

Deuteronomy 6:4 · Matthew 28:19

We believe Jesus is fully God and fully man. He lived a sinless life, died on the cross for our sins, rose bodily from the dead and is coming again.

John 1:1, 14 · 1 Corinthians 15:3–4

We believe the Holy Spirit lives in every believer, giving new life, guiding us into truth and empowering us to live for Christ.

John 14:16–17 · Galatians 5:22–25

We believe every person is created in the image of God and has great worth, yet all have sinned and need a Savior.

Genesis 1:27 · Romans 3:23

We believe salvation is a free gift of God’s grace, received through faith in Jesus Christ alone — not earned by good works.

Ephesians 2:8–9 · Romans 10:9

We believe the church is the family of God, called to worship, grow in Christ, care for one another and share the gospel.

Acts 2:42–47

We celebrate baptism and the Lord’s Supper as acts of obedience that remember and proclaim what Christ has done.

Matthew 28:19 · 1 Corinthians 11:23–26

We believe Jesus will return, and God will make all things new. Those who trust in Him will live with Him forever.

John 14:3 · Revelation 21:4

In essentials, unity. In non-essentials, liberty. In all things, love.
