We believe that…

• …God is
• …God is knowable
• …the Bible is the best guide to knowing and understanding God
• …life works better with divine guidance
• …people get along better when God’s love comes to life within them
• …Jesus is the path to knowing God personally and to finding eternal life

We value…

• …knowing the God who created our universe and everything in it.
• …helping people discover the unique contribution they can make toward improving this church, our community and our world.
• …moving people toward personal, relational and spiritual growth
• …introducing people to Jesus

We believe in and value a church created by God through people devoted to showing their love for God by serving others in their community and world.

We value being a church where Christians from diverse backgrounds can worship freely together. We have laid aside the differences of our backgrounds to unite through the love of and the lordship of Jesus Christ. We accept the Bible as the inspired word of God, and our only rule and authority. We strive to grow in our character to be more like Jesus as we serve God together.
