What we Think

The Word of God is True

As a church that stands in the tradition of the reformation, we look to God’s word as our rule of life.  The written word, contained in the Bible, and the Living Word, Jesus Christ, provide the foundational supports of our faith.

“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.”

2 Timothy 3:16

The Spirit of God is Active

God is actively at work in our world today through his Spirit.  Christians are empowered by the Holy Spirit to be Jesus’ representatives on the earth.  By living in obedience to his will, we become conduits of his love and truth to our world.

“And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with forever, the Spirit of Truth.”

John 14:16

The Human Heart Must Respond

It is not enough to merely affirm a general belief in God.  When one hears the good news about Jesus Christ, he or she must turn from trusting in their own goodness and, by faith alone, receive the free gift of God for themself by believing what Jesus said about himself. (John 1:12, John 14:6)   From there, the gospel is transformative  – changing every inch of our lives.  So, we boldly proclaim that Knowing Jesus Changes Everything!

“Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.”

Mark 12:30
