What We Believe

Statement of Faith

We affirm the Holy Bible as the inspired Word of God and the basis for our beliefs. In addition, this church subscribes to the doctrinal statement of the Baptist Faith and Message as adopted by the Southern Baptist Convention in 2000. The Baptist Faith and Message does not exhaust the extent of our faith. The Bible itself is the sole and final source of all we believe. All literature used in the church shall be in complete agreement with this statement of basic beliefs.


The Church recognizes and adheres to the Holy Bible as the inspired and infallible Word of God and as the sole authority for our faith and practice. All scripture is a testimony to Christ who is Himself the focus of divine revelation.


We believe that God wonderfully and immutably creates each person as either male or female, and that these two distinct, complementary sexes together reflect the image and nature of God (Gen. 1:26-27). Rejection of one’s biological sex is a rejection of the image of God within that person.

Five Pillars

In addition to these, we have organized as a body using these five pillars to support the ministry we believe God has called us to:


Worship – Through Christ-centered worship, we will provide regular services for families to worship the Lord in Spirit and in truth (John 4:24).


Discipleship – Through bible focused gatherings, we will offer families discipleship resources to grow deeper in their walks with Christ (Acts 2:42-47).


Evangelism – Through and by the power of the Holy Spirit, we will train and encourage our members to share the gospel and bring new families into God’s family (Matthew 28:18-20).


Ministry – Through Christ-honoring ministries, we will give families the chance to serve families in need throughout the community and connect them to Jesus Christ (Matthew 10:42).


Fellowship – Through our family relationship in Christ, we will gather together and encourage each other in our walks with Christ. (Hebrews 10:25).
