First and foremost, we believe there is always hope because of Jesus. He is the author and finisher of our faith, and in Him we live and move and have our being. No matter where you come from, what you have or haven't done, who you are, as long as there is breath in your body, there is hope for you in Jesus!

We believe in one God, and that His name is Jesus. Ephesians 4:5-6 tells us there is "One Lord, one faith, one baptism. One God and Father of all who is above all, and through all, and in you all." We believe that Jesus Christ was fully man and fully God. We believe that "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God and the Word was God" (John 1:1-2). Colossians 1:15 tells us that Jesus "is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature." Jesus himself told Philip in John 14:9 "If you have seen me, you have seen the Father."

We believe that we are all sinners who have fallen short of the grace of God, desperately in need of a Savior. We believe that a relationship with Jesus begins with faith in His saving name and His finished work on the cross.

We believe in baptism by immersion in Jesus' name. When Jesus gave instructions to His disciples in Matthew 28:19 to baptize in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, He didn't intend for them to repeat His instructions. He intended for them to fulfill them. Anytime someone was baptized in the New Testament (Acts 2, 10, 19), they were baptized in Jesus name.

We believe that when a follower of Jesus is filled with His Spirit, his or her life will begin to bear fruit. The fruit of the Spirit, as mentioned in Galatians 5:22-23, represent nine defining attributes of a godly life developed by the Holy Spirit, not through human effort alone: love, joy, peace, goodness, kindness, patience, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

We believe worship is more than a song, more than something we participate in solely on Sundays and Wednesdays. Romans 12:1 says, "Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship." Worship is always a sacrifice, sometimes of our time, sometimes of our pride, sometimes of our effort.

We believe the Bible is the infallible word of God. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (NIV) says, "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness..."

We believe that Jesus Christ is coming back for His church, a bride who has made herself ready and is without fault or blemish. We believe that when He comes He will take His church from the earth and the dead in Christ will rise to meet Him in the air. We believe there is a Heaven to gain and a Hell to lose. We look forward to our savior's appearing!
