Statement of Faith
We come to worship Jesus Christ because He is worthy to receive all glory, honor and power, and He has created all things, thus, we emphasize songs of worship and songs of praise in our meetings. Because worship is part of drawing near to God the first 30 minutes of our 90 minute service is dedicated to worship through music.
- We are taught by the Word of Jesus Christ because it is a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path, leading us to a personal knowledge of Him. His Word is also living and powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword, discerning the thoughts and intent of the heart. The Word is also given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, so that the man and woman of God may be complete and thoroughly equipped for every good work, thus we emphasize the proclamation and teaching of God's Holy Word in our meetings. We believe in detailed study of the Bible using an inductive approach that searches each chapter line by line looking for truth first based on observation of what the Word says, then by interpretation of what the Word means and finally by application of the Word to our lives today. We teach verse by verse through the Bible and are currently in the book of John. In-depth study takes time so we set aside at least 45 minutes on Sunday morning for the Word.
- We seek to grow continually in the agape, or unconditional, love of Jesus Christ and see fellowship and personal discipleship an important part of that process. He commands us to love one another, so that by His love in and through us, the world will know that we are His disciples, thus we emphasize unity and fellowship in the body of believers and support other church ministries in the area that teach the accurate Word of God in Truth and Love.
