Jesus is our Guide to the very heart of God and the Head of the Church. We trust His words; we apply the priorities of Scripture as He explained them; we listen to the Holy Spirit; and we learn from good role models.
Scripture Reference: John 14:6 - "Jesus answered, 'I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'

We encourage corporate worship, personal prayer and Bible study, small group fellowship with other believers, giving generously locally and globally, and stewarding well all of God's creation.
Scripture Reference: Acts 2:42 - "They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer."

We believe many people are just waiting for an invitation. We seek to identify people in our lives who are receptive to Jesus’s message and are willing to stretch ourselves by sharing our faith with others.
Scripture Reference: Matthew 28:19-20 - "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you."

We love and affirm everyone who comes through our doors just the way they are. Spiritual maturity and giftedness determine where a member serves, rather than gender, gender-identity, sexual orientation, age, disability, ethnicity, social status, or race.
Scripture Reference: Galatians 3:28 - "There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus."

In our church, young people actively participate in everything we do. We prioritize the spiritual formation of young people in our church and incorporate their gifts and talents as well as their full participation in the life of the church.
Scripture Reference: Psalm 145:4 - "One generation commends your works to another; they tell of your mighty acts."

We seek to love our neighbors as Jesus loves them. We intentionally seek to build relationships with and learn from neighbors of different faiths, cultures, and socioeconomic statuses, as we come alongside these brothers and sisters to be advocates for justice and peace.
Scripture Reference: Mark 12:31 - "The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.”
