Our Beliefs
We invite you to explore our beliefs and join us in our pursuit of living out our faith in boldness and passion.
The Trinity
We believe in one true God in three distinct persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (Matthew 28:19, 2 Corinthians 13:14; Ephesians 4:4-6; 1 Corinthians 6:11; Luke 3:21-22)
The Bible
The Word of God is our final authority in all matters of faith and practice (John 1:1; 2 Timothy 3:16-17; Matthew 4:4)
Salvation
All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, but out of God’s grace he sent his Son to die for our sins. His name is Jesus and he is the only way to eternal life. (Romans 3:23; Romans 3:10-12; John 3:16; John 14:6, Acts 4:12)
Jesus
Having been given faith in Jesus, and no longer dead in our sins, we are alive in Christ and called to follow His will and ways. (Romans 6:11, 6:17-18, 6:22; 1 Corinthians 5:9-11; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Philippians 3:12; 1 Peter 3:8)
Good News
We believe we are called to share the Good News of Jesus and serve in his name, this is to reflect the love of Christ to our neighbors and each other. (Matthew 28:16-20; Mark 12:30-31; Galatians 6:10, Colossians 3:16-17; 1 Thessalonians 2:8, 1 Peter 4:10-11)
The Church
We gather together as the family of God, all ages at one time and one place for worship and fellowship. (Nehemiah 8:1-3; Acts 2:44-47; Deuteronomy 6:4-9; Hebrews 10:24-26; Psalm 100:5)
Baptism and The Lord’s Supper
We observe Baptism and the Lord’s Supper as the sacraments of our faith. They are signs and promises instituted by God to help us understand the gospel. (Matthew 26:27-28; Acts 2:38-39; Hebrews 10:10; Luke 22:15-19, Mark 16:16)
Marriage
We believe marriage is only between one man and one woman. (Genesis 2:21-24; Exodus 20:17; 1 Timothy 3:2; Proverbs 5:18; Proverbs 18:22; 1 Corinthians 7:2; Matthew 19:5-6)
Creeds and Confessions
We accept and honor the historical creeds and confessions of the Alliance of Reformed Churches. (2 Thessalonians 2:15; Revelation 22:19; Titus 1:9)
