We Seek Him First.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.
Proverbs 3: 5-6
But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness and all things will be given to you as well.
Matthew 6: 33
We Pursue His Presence & Fullness.
We focus on worship and prayer. Worship brings us into His presence while growing in unity as His body of believers.
Prayer connects us to the heart of the Father as we seek Him and His kingdom here on Earth.
Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God, this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is, His good, pleasing and perfect will.
Romans 12: 1-2
We Equip the Church & Next Generation Through Training and Discipleship.
Training creates a space to learn how to partner with Holy Spirit and use His gifts within a culture of support.
Discipleship fosters connection between His body of believers as we grow together into His maturity.
So Christ Himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors, and teachers to equip His people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up.
Ephesians 4: 11-12
Statement of Faith
We believe in the one, true, eternal God who has revealed Himself as self-existent- one being in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
We believe the Lord Jesus Christ, born of the virgin, lived a sinless life, shed his blood through a sacrificial death for the sins of the world, rose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, and his personal return in power and glory.
We believe in the work and present ministry of the holy spirit. The Holy Spirit was sent to us by the Father for our good, to guide us and to give us power, strength, and hope.
We believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit. With it comes the infilling of power and of the gifts and their uses in ministry.
We believe that salvation comes through Jesus alone. It is by His grace, through faith in the person and the finished work of Jesus on the cross, we can go to heaven, not by works.
We believe the Bible is the inspired, only infallible word of God. Scripture is Truth as the word of God and is necessary to equip and train us.
We believe in the unity of the body in glorifying Christ and that there is power and purpose in a unified body that values the different gifts, skills, perspectives, and contributions of its members.
