In the ministry of all believers, and that God has a unique purpose for each of our lives all along the way;
that the church is the place God has birthed to help every believer discover their purpose and to be equipped to use their gifts and talents; and,
that there is a ‘sweet spot’ of God’s plan for our life that all of us have where our lives are fruitful, joyful, and filled with meaning.
That all are hopeless and helpless apart from the forgiveness of God;
that forgiveness and relationship with God is freely offered to all who will accept it through faith, confession of Christ, and baptism into Christ; and,
that it is the responsibility of every Christian to live a life in submission to Christ.
We call ourselves by no name but the one in the Bible for those who follow Christ--Christian.
We accept no creed but faith in Christ.
We adopt no rule of faith and practice but the Bible.
We practice baptism by immersion, following the example set by Jesus Christ.
We observe communion, or the Lord’s Supper, weekly as a remembrance of the Lord’s death and resurrection, as a proclamation of the certainty of His return, and as an examination of our lives before Him.
It is our goal to allow God’s Will and Word to govern our lives and His church.
In essentials, unity;
in opinions, liberty;
in all things, love.
