God is real and personal and has revealed Himself in nature and the Bible

The Bible is Godʼs perfect guidebook for living productive, purposeful lives

Jesus Christ is the unique Son of God, not just a good man or spiritual guru

Every person is of eternal value and importance to God

Sin is doing our thing, not God's

Sin is a moral problem that needs forgiving

Forgiveness, hope and freedom are God's gifts to us by faith in Jesus Christ alone

Choices in this life will have temporal and eternal consequences

Christians should be making a positive difference in the world

Life should be celebrated

It's never too late to start living God's way

Our Values

Worship above Works

celebrating God in relationship as a worthy end in itself and the basis for all acts of worship
