Gospel-Centered & Christ-Committed

We are a community of believers in Jesus Christ, passionate about the Gospel and the glory of His Name! We place a high priority on the preaching of God’s Word, aiming to evangelize and disciple people so that they may live lives that bring glory to God in their families and wherever He has placed them.

Our Vision

We lead people to life-change that is only possible through Jesus Christ! (2 Cor 5:17; Col 1:28).

2 Corinthians 5 : 17: “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.”

Colossians 1 : 28: “Him we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone mature in Christ.”

Our Mission

Reaching people with the Gospel of Jesus Christ, establishing them in the Body of Christ, and equipping them to be witnesses for Christ, to the glory of His Name! (Eph 4:11-16; Phil 1:21-22).

Philippians 1:21–22: “For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. If I am to live in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me.”

Our Core Beliefs

1. We are Christian

While the term "Christian" can mean different things to different people, we firmly uphold the teaching of Jesus Christ on the absolute necessity of the new birth and faith in Him, without which no one can see the Kingdom of God. (John 3:3, 5, 15-16).

John 3:3: “Jesus answered him, ‘Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.’”

John 3:5: “Jesus answered, ‘Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.’”

John 3:15-16: “That whoever believes in him may have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”

2. We are Bible-Based

We are committed to basing all that we teach and do on the inerrant and infallible Scriptures. These Scriptures are sufficient (2 Timothy 3:16-17), and therefore, we believe that revelatory gifts were necessary for the early church before the Scriptures were completed but are no longer needed today. (1 Corinthians 13:8-12; Numbers 12:6-8; Hebrews 11:1; 2 Peter 1:3-4, 19-21; Jude 1:3).

While we do not claim to know everything about God from the Bible, we strive to diligently discover Jesus Christ in all of Scripture, both for ourselves and others. (Luke 24:27; John 5:39). The Bible alone will always be our final and ultimate authority for faith and practice.

2 Timothy 3:16–17 “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness...”

1 Corinthians 13:8–12 (Excerpt for brevity) “Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease...”

Hebrews 11:1 -2 “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. For by it the people of old received their commendation.”

2 Peter 1:3-4, 19-21 (Excerpt v.3) “His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness...”
(Excerpt v.19–21) “...no prophecy of Scripture comes from someone’s own interpretation.”

Jude 1:3 “...I found it necessary to write appealing to you to contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints.”

Luke 24:27 “And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he interpreted to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.”

John 5:39 “You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness about me.”

3. We are Baptistic

Baptism is understood differently among churches, but we firmly believe that baptism is for believers only. (Acts 2:41; 10:47; 16:33-34).

Acts 2:41 “So those who received his word were baptized, and there were added that day about three thousand souls.”

Acts 10:47 “Can anyone withhold water for baptizing these people, who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?”

Acts 16:33–34 “...he was baptized at once, he and all his family...”

4. We are Reformed and Reforming

We hold to the maxim that salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, to the glory of God alone, as taught in Scripture alone.

We believe that:

God is exalted in salvation, while mankind is radically sinful. (Genesis 6:5; 8:21; Jeremiah 17:9; Romans 3:9-18, 23).

Genesis 6:5 “The Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth...”

Genesis 8:21 “...for the intention of man's heart is evil from his youth.”

Jeremiah 17:9 “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it?”

Romans 3:9–18, 23 (Excerpt v.23) “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”

God sovereignly chooses whom He will save. (Matthew 11:27; Acts 13:48; Romans 9:15-16; Ephesians 1:4-5).

Matthew 11:27 “All things have been handed over to me by my Father...”

Acts 13:48 “...and as many as were appointed to eternal life believed.”

Romans 9:15–16 “For he says to Moses, ‘I will have mercy on whom I have mercy...’”

Ephesians 1:4–5 “...He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world...”

Christ died specifically for His people, fully accomplishing their redemption at the Cross. (John 10:11, 14-15; Ephesians 5:25).

John 10:11, 14–15 “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep...”

Ephesians 5:25 “Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her...”

Those whom God intends to save will be effectually called by the Holy Spirit and overwhelmed by His grace. (Ephesians 2:1-5; 2 Thessalonians 2:13-14).

Ephesians 2:1-5 (Excerpt v.4–5) “But God... made us alive together with Christ...”

2 Thessalonians 2:13-14 “God chose you as the firstfruits to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth.”

Genuine believers will be kept secure by God forever. (John 10:27-29; Philippians 1:6; 1 Corinthians 1:4-9; Jude 1:24-25).

Since no Christian and no church is perfect, we are a reforming community, continuously growing in our understanding and application of biblical truth.

John 10:27-29 “My sheep hear my voice... no one will snatch them out of my hand.”

Philippians 1:6 “And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion...”

1 Corinthians 1:4-9 (Excerpt v.8–9) “...He will sustain you to the end, guiltless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Jude 1:24-25 “Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling...”

5. We are Evangelistic and Missions-Minded

The Gospel must go out into the world. We have a divine mandate to preach the Gospel to all people. (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15; Luke 24:46-48; Romans 1:16-17).

We are committed to spreading the Gospel locally and supporting its spread internationally. (Acts 1:8).

Matthew 28:18–20 “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations...”

Mark 16:15 “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.”

Luke 24:46–48 “...that repentance for the forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed in his name to all nations...”

Romans 1:16–17 “For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation...”

Acts 1:8 “...you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
