The church is not a building or place, but a collection of fully devoted followers of Christ united by the Holy Spirit. We are a community actively engaged with one another in encouragement, confession of sin, support, correction, and transformation. We are characterized by genuine love for one another, transparency in struggles, and purposeful in helping one another grow in our relationships with Christ.

The Gospel of Christ is not a message of personal therapy, but a message of complete life change by the power of the Holy Spirit that should overflow into the community for God’s glory and the community’s good.

God loves us just the way we are, but loves us enough not to let us stay as we are. Through faith, God redeems and reconciles our heads (thoughts), hands (actions), and hearts (affections) to Him through His son Jesus Christ.

We are called to a lifestyle of prayer and worship; they do not simply occur during a church gathering. People transformed by the Gospel seek to respond to the Triune God with their whole lives in praise, adoration, and affection as they remember what God has done for them, submit their lives to Him, and obey His commands.

Generosity does not come at the risk of future poverty. On the contrary, generosity is the route to prevent future deprivation. If you give God your time, he multiplies it. If you give God your money, he multiplies it. If you give God your talent, he multiplies it. We need not fear that by helping others succeed at work we will compromise our own wellbeing. God has promised to give us all that we need.
