Prayer
We believe that prayer is purposefully communicating to God. Through prayer, we acknowledge our dependency on Christ and we rejoice in boldly bringing both requests and praises to God, knowing that He hears and responds. Without God, this ministry is nothing; therefore, we battle through prayer and worship. John 15:1-8 | Ephesians 6:10-18 | Philippians 4:6-7
Biblical Sexuality
We believe that all humanity is created by God as male or female, equal in worth and distinct in gender. All humans are created in the Image of God; therefore, all human life is sacred. In creating sacred life as male and female, God communicated different aspects of His own divine image. Genesis 1:27 | Genesis 2:18-25 | Colossians 3:1-24 | Galatians 3:26-29
Value for the body of Christ
We believe that everyone who calls on Jesus as Lord and Savior is a member of the Body of Christ, the Church universal, which spans all of time and space. Each member of this body of believers is equipped with skills, gifts, and talents that the Church universal needs to work in unity. Therefore, we were built for community and unity. Acts 2:42-47 | Ephesians 1:22-23 | Ephesians 4:11-16 | 1 Corinthians 12:1-31
Holy Spirit
We believe that the Holy Spirit is part of the Godhead (Father, Son, Spirit). The Holy Spirit is divine, equal in authority to the other members of the Godhead. He convicts the world of sin, brings repentance and faith to the believer, and indwells with believers. His main role is to convict of sin and to seal believers in relationship with the Father and Son. 2 Corinthians 3:18 | Ephesians 1:13 | Acts 1:8 | Acts 2:38
Bible
We believe the Bible is the Inspired Word of God. The Old and New Testaments, in their entirety, constitute the written Word of God and are without error in the original manuscripts. They were written by men, through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and are therefore fully authoritative in all matters for the follower of Christ. 2 Peter 1:20-21 | Proverbs 30:5 | John 17:17 | Romans 15:4
Jesus
“We believe in Jesus Christ, God’s only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended to hell. The third day he rose again from the dead. He ascended to heaven and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty. From there he will come to judge the living and the dead.” Hebrews 4:15 | Mark 16:1-8 | Hebrews 9:26 | Matthew 1:18
God the Father
There is one God, infinite, eternal, and unchangeable in His being, wisdom, power, holiness, love, justice, goodness, and truth, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, who desires that we should know Him intimately and live a life of fulfillment through the pursuit of His glory. John 1:1-21, Corinthians 12:4-6, Jude 20-21, Psalm 90:2
