Our Basic Beliefs

• We believe that there is one God, revealed in the three distinct persons of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

• We believe that the Bible, containing both the Old and New Testaments, are the inspired and infallible word of God. 

• We believe that man was created in God’s image, but that man has turned away from this image and is spiritually dead in his sins, unable to save himself.

• We believe that salvation can only be obtained by faith through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

• We believe that all Christians are to be good and faithful stewards of all the gifts that God has given them.

Our Core Values

1) We value the Scriptures as being our source for the fundamental principles of living a godly and honorable life, and that they should be faithfully taught and applied to the full issues of our lives.

2) We value relevancy in ministry, meaning that it is important to follow the example of Jesus in ensuring that we present the truths of Scripture in a manner that is understandable and applicable to the needs of our present culture.

 3) We value relationships, and believe that love for God is demonstrated through godly love for one another.

4) We value family as a vital organism for creating and sustaining a nurturing faith in God, and that the Church is to assist families in deepening their devotion to Him and to each other.

 5) We value grace as the means by which we develop and sustain relationships with God, and also the means by which we develop and sustain relationships with others. Just as we have received God’s forgiving and guiding grace, we are to also extend it to others.

 6) We value humility in recognizing and admitting our imperfections and weaknesses, knowing that in this life we will never grow beyond our need for grace.

 7) We value teamwork, knowing that what God leads us to pursue can only be accomplished as we work together in unity, cooperating with each other and with His Spirit.

 8) We value involvement, knowing that the church is only functioning properly when each part of the body of Christ is engaged in service.

 9) We value spiritual gifts, knowing that these are the skills and abilities God has imparted to us in order to carry out the work of His kingdom. Just as each believer has received some gift from God, we are responsible for discovering, developing, and deploying these gifts.

 10) We value creativity, knowing that the life God has given us is greater than our routines, habits, and practices. While our beliefs may be traditional, we value creative ways to express and experience those timeless truths.

Our Affiliations

• Our Church is a part of the General Association of General Baptists, an evangelical Christian  denomination that holds to the belief that Jesus Christ died for all of mankind, making salvation available to all who believe in Him. General Baptist churches are sovereign in their church government and worship, which allows each congregation to develop their unique identity within the denomination. For more complete information on the General Baptists, visit our denomination's website. Or, for a brief history and overview, visit Wikipedia's article.

• Our Church is also affiliated with the Willow Creek Association, a network of congregations that share a similar vision for impacting our individual communities with the gospel of Jesus Christ. The Willow Creek Association is not a denomination, but is instead a non-profit ministry that links Churches together who share a passion for helping irreligious people become fully-devoted followers of Jesus Christ.
