OUR BELIEFS
Jesus is Lord
The singularity, the exclusivity, the divinity of the one Lord Jesus is central to who we are. He is the Bread of Life. The Lamb of God. The Way, the Truth, and the Life. The one Mediator between God and humankind. The Lord of lords, the King of kings. The Son of Man. The Son of God. The Word become Flesh. The Name at which every knee shall bow.
Holiness
The Person, the work, and the power of the Holy Spirit is fundamental to who we are as a people. The Spirit can transform us, possess us, equip us, and empower us. It is the work of the Holy Spirit that sanctifies us, makes us holy, sets us apart for sacred service, and seals us for eternity’s sake. It is the Spirit that convicts us of sin and enables us to overcome sin. It is the Holy Spirit that can breathe supernatural gifts into us, for Jesus’ sake. He is the Comforter promised by Jesus and the witness of our redemption (Galatians 5:22–23).
The Great Commandments
Love God with your whole self, and love your neighbors as yourself. The Scripture tells us this is the sum of the Law and the Prophets.
The Supremacy of Scripture
We are a people of the Bible—the Old and New Testaments, supernaturally inspired, preserved across time, cultures, and continents, delivered to us, useful for reproof and instruction, for righteousness. We are committed to studying the Word of God and faithfully living it out.
The Trinity
Though difficult for the human mind to fully comprehend, our one God expresses himself in three persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Each person of the Trinity serves a unique role to bring God glory and accomplish his purposes in the world (Gen 1:26; 2 Cor 13:14)
Marriage
We believe that marriage is God’s ordained plan for a biological man and a biological woman determined at birth. The institution of marriage was given by God to man and cannot be changed. In light of this unchangeable truth, we will not allow our facility or staff to be party to an event that is in opposition to this belief.
Sanctity of Life
We believe that ALL human life is sacred and created by God in His image. Human life is of immeasurable worth, including pre-born babies, the aged, the physically or mentally challenged and any other human condition from conception to natural death.
