Give Rooted in Scripture · Anchored in Christ
What webelieve.
Scripture is our primary authority for faith and practice. Our doctrine is summarized by the Baptist Faith & Message 2000 and centered on the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
I ✦
Scripture
The Bible is God’s inspired, true, trustworthy Word and the supreme standard for belief and life. All Scripture points us to Jesus Christ.
II ✦
God
There is one living and true God who eternally exists as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—distinct persons, one divine nature.
III ✦
Salvation
Salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. Jesus lived without sin, died for our sins, rose bodily, and offers forgiveness and new life to all who repent and believe.
IV ✦
The church
The local church is an autonomous congregation of baptized believers, governed under Christ and called to worship, fellowship, discipleship, ministry, and mission.
V ✦
Baptism & the Lord’s Supper
Baptism by immersion is a believer’s public declaration of faith. The Lord’s Supper remembers Christ’s sacrifice and proclaims His return.
Our hope ✦
Jesus is coming again.
Christ will return personally and visibly, raise the dead, judge with righteousness, and make all things new. This hope calls us to faithful worship and mission now.
