What We Believe
Our Beliefs
Centered in Christ. Rooted in Scripture. Guided by the Spirit.
Our Foundation
Biblical Vision
Our beliefs are shaped by the biblical vision of the Church as a diverse body (1 Corinthians 12), held together by love (1 Corinthians 13), and united in the Spirit as Jesus prayed (John 17).
We hold to historic Christian faith expressed through a lens of liberation, belonging, and contemporary worship.
God
We believe in one God — Creator, Redeemer, and Sustainer — who is love, who is for us, and who is actively at work in the world through the Holy Spirit.
Jesus Christ
We believe Jesus is the Son of God, the embodiment of God's love, and the one who shows us the way of liberation, healing, and new life. His life, teachings, death, and resurrection reveal God's heart for all people.
Scripture
We believe Scripture is inspired, living, and transformative. We read the Bible with depth, honesty, and reverence — seeking the Spirit's guidance as we interpret it through the lenses of liberation, justice, belonging, and the life and teachings of Jesus.
The Holy Spirit
We believe the Holy Spirit is active today — comforting, empowering, guiding, and renewing the Church. We seek the Spirit's presence in worship, prayer, discernment, and daily life.
Humanity
We believe every person is created in the image of God, inherently worthy, and deeply loved. We celebrate the diversity of God's creation — including race, gender, sexuality, ability, and background — as a reflection of God's beauty and creativity.
The Church
We believe the Church is the Body of Christ, made up of many members with many gifts. We are called to love one another, pursue unity, practice justice, embody compassion, and welcome all people into God's family.
Love
We believe love is the highest calling and the clearest expression of God's character. Everything we do — worship, teaching, community, and service — is shaped by the love described in 1 Corinthians 13.
Mission
We believe the Church is called to participate in God's work of healing, justice, reconciliation, and liberation in the world. We seek to be a community where faith becomes action and love becomes visible.
Worship
We believe worship is a living encounter with God. Our worship is contemporary, expressive, and Spirit-led — a space where people can bring their whole selves and experience God's presence with authenticity and joy.
Belonging
We believe God's table is open. We affirm the full inclusion of LGBTQ+ people in every part of church life — leadership, ministry, marriage, and discipleship. We honor every story and celebrate every gift God brings into this community.
