Jesus

“Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. Love God with all our heart.” Matthew 22:37–38

  • WORD-CENTERED
    We believe the Bible is living and active today. The Bible is the very Word of God which means it is the source of truth for our lives, our faith, our families, and the world. We prioritize the Word of God in our worship gatherings, groups, and daily lives. Our pastors teach us from the Bible through expository preaching, which means that we get to understand the context and point of Bible passage, what it teaches us about God, and how it applies to our lives today.

  • JESUS-FIRST
    All of the Bible points to Jesus. We make so much of Jesus in all we do. He is the Son of God who died for us, rose from the dead, gave us new life, and leads us today. He is the true hero of the story and the leader of our church. He > Me.

Community

“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.” John 13:34-35

  • REAL-COMMUNITY
    Our deepest longing is to be loved and accepted. The good news of Jesus is that God not only cancels our sins but also brings us into God’s family. We are family. We love each other and strive to be an authentic community for people of all ages and walks of life.

  • SPIRIT-EMPOWERED
    God gave us the same powerful Holy Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead. He speaks to us today, helps us to live fruitful lives, and directs us to reach the world with the good news of Jesus Christ.

  • SERVANT-LEADERSHIP
    We need leaders who serve like Jesus. We strive to be a culture where anyone can use their gifts for God, and everyone will want to serve with a team for Jesus. As we do, we will see leaders developed and serve at an even higher level to the praise of our King.

Mission

“And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations.”
Matthew 28:18-19a

  • MISSION-DRIVEN
    Jesus is so worthy of praise. We are on a mission to reach our neighbors, coworkers, city, and the world with his good news. Through our words and actions, we want to influence people to come to Jesus, grow in him, and multiply more healthy disciples, groups, and churches.

  • HOPE-RESTORED
    Jesus completely changed our lives. We are people from many different backgrounds, economic situations, cultures, and walks of life. We believe the gospel is powerful enough to restore hope to anyone, anywhere. We strive to be a loving and supportive church family for people in every stage of life.
