Our Beliefs

We believe the Bible is inspired by God, relevant for all generations, and it is the infallible guide for faith and conduct. We believe in the one true God who exists as a Trinity: God the Father, Jesus the Son of God, and the Holy Spirit who lives in all who place their faith in Christ. He is the maker and sustainer of all things, and we were created in his image to have a relationship with Him. That relationship was broken because of SIN, which brings both physical death and spiritual death, which is separation from God. But God sent his son Jesus to become a man, live a perfect life, and offer himself as a sacrifice to pay for our sins. Salvation is received by repenting of our sin and putting our faith in Jesus. By trusting in Jesus, we can get right with God and others. We have been gathered into God’s family, the CHURCH, and given a mission to make disciples of Jesus. The Holy Spirit has been given to empower the church and all his gifts are available to us today. We live our lives as an act of WORSHIP, seeking to love others like Jesus loves us.
