Our Christian Beliefs
-
God, who is one, is revealed in three distinct persons.
-
We believe in the mystery of salvation through Jesus Christ. God became human in Jesus whose life, death, and resurrection demonstrate God's redeeming love.
-
The Holy Spirit is God's present activity in our midst. When we sense God's leading, God's challenge, or God's support or comfort, it's the Holy Spirit at work.
-
Genesis 1:27 asserts that we've been made in the image of the Creator. Like God we have the capacity to love and care, to communicate, and to create.
-
The church is the body of Christ, an extension of Christ's life and ministry in the world today.
-
We believe that the Bible is the primary authority for our faith and practice.
-
The kingdom or reign of God is both a present reality and future hope.
