Our Beliefs
We believe in God
- that He is one God revealed in three Persons:  Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

We believe in Jesus Christ - that He is God the Son who came to earth to die for our sins and rise again to life, and that He will return to earth as King and Judge of all mankind.

We believe in personal salvation - that each individual must place his or her faith in Jesus Christ and accept His salvation personally in order to receive forgiveness of sins and the promise of eternal life.

We believe in Christlike living - that those who receive new life in Jesus Christ are called to be like Him in character and conduct.

We believe in the Holy Spirit - that He lives in and desires to fill every believer and that Christlike character is developed in the live of those who daily yield to His power and guidance.

We believe in Christian fellowship - that Christians grow in faith and godly character through meaningful relationships with one another in the Body of Christ, the Church.

We believe in the Bible - that it is accurate and is the final authority for Christian faith and actions.

We believe in the Great Commission - that God wants all people everywhere to know Him and that the purpose of the Church is to introduce people to Jesus Christ and journey together in a growing relationship with Him.

Dependence on God

Believing that our efforts and programs are totally ineffective without the presence and power of God, we seek to make prayer a top priority in our program scheduling and to encourage consistent private and family prayer in the lives of our people.

Personal Integrity

Believing that we demonstrate our love for God through the pursuit of personal holiness and integrity of lifestyle, we seek to model and promote the highest ethical and moral standards.

Authority of the Bible

Believing that the Bible is the Word of God and the final authority on all things pertaining to our spiritual lives, we seek to teach, learn, apply, and live Biblical principles consistently to the best of our ability.

Love for People

Believing that God's love and grace are to flow through us to others, we seek to demonstrate grace toward all people by our words, attitudes, and actions.

Spiritual Relationships

Believing that real ministry and spiritual growth take place best within the context of vital relationships, we seek to structure our ministries so as to promote ever-deepening relationships among our people.

Shared Ministry

Believing that every believer is gifted by God for ministry within the Body of Christ and that the vitality of our local church is dependent on a broad level of involvement, we seek to pursue more and better ways of training, enabling, and releasing our people for ministry.

Personal Evangelism

Believing that Christ has called us to "go and make disciples," we seek to develop greater skills and methods of introducing people to Christ and nurturing them in their personal faith.

Anointed Preaching/Teaching

Believing that weekly Spirit-anointed preaching/teaching is central to the spiritual development of our congregation, we seek to structure our ministries so as to allow adequate time for the development and presentation of informative and spiritually-motivating Bible messages.

Joyful Worship

Believing that regularly-scheduled corporate, celebrative worship brings pleasure to God and is an essential element of our spiritual health, we seek to make our weekly worship experience a high priority in our scheduling, planning, and budgeting.

Cultural Relevance

Believing that God has placed us at this point in time in order to minister to our contemporary culture, we seek to develop relevant methods, means, and styles of ministry which best communicate the unchanging gospel to our ever-changing world.

Unity in Diversity

Believing that unity in the Body of Christ is a matter of oneness of heart based on core Biblical principles and does not require uniformity of thought or style, we seek to develop an atmosphere of mutual respect and cooperation among our people regardless of a wide array of opinions on secondary issues.

Faith-Based Decision Making

Believing that God-honoring churches make leadership decisions based on faith and vision, not on fear, we seek to move forward in pursuing our God-given mission regardless of whatever challenges we may encounter.

Social Concern

Believing that Christ's commands to "love our neighbor as ourselves" and to be "salt" and "light" in the world imply a strong social responsibility, we seek to develop better and more practical means of both helping those in need and resisting those forces which undermine the moral foundations of society.

Global Vision

Believing that Christ died for all people of all nations and ethnic groups and has called us to "go into all the world and preach the gospel," we seek to broaden our awareness of and prayer support for world missions, to challenge our people to personal involvement in world missions, and to monitor prayerfully our level of financial support for world missions.

Denominational Relations

Believing that our relationship to The Wesleyan Church involves certain responsibilities as described in The Discipline, we seek to honor and fulfill those responsibilities to the best of our ability.

Kingdom of God

Believing that the Kingdom of God transcends denominational, cultural, and doctrinal boundaries, we seek to promote unity of fellowship among all who uphold the Bible as the Word of God and embrace our Lord Jesus Christ in faith.
