Core Values

Scriptural Fidelity

Scripture is our standard for our faith and life. If we cannot base it upon Scripture then we do not believe it or do it. We strive to believe and do all that Scripture teaches and nothing it does not. This applies to all areas of church and life (Ps. 33:4; 119:75; Mk. 7:8; 2 Tm. 3:16–17).

Passionate Worship

We exist for worship, bringing glory to God in all aspects of our lives (Ps. 148:13; Isa. 42:8; 48:11; Rom. 12:1; 1 Cor. 6:20; 10:31; Eph. 3:20–21; 1 Pet. 2:5; Jude 24–25).

Intentional Discipleship

We exist to make disciples who obediently reproduce themselves for the kingdom of Christ (Matt. 28:19–20; 1 Cor. 4:11; 11:1; Phil. 3:17; 4:9; 1 Thess. 1:6; 2 Tm. 2:2; Titus 2:1–15; 1 Jn. 2:4–6).

Visible Compassion

We exist for service, showing the love of Christ in visible ways to the world around us (Isa. 1:17; Mic. 6:8; Matt. 22:39; 25:31–40; Rom. 5:6–8; Gal. 5:14; Js. 1:27; 2:14–17).

Confession of Faith

We subscribe to the Baptist Faith and Message 2000 (BFM2000) as we believe it confesses an adequate summary of the Bible's teaching. We do not believe the BFM2000 is an infallible document. Rather it is to be viewed as a "mapping out" of what is contained in the Holy Scriptures. The BFM2000 assists us in confessing the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints (Jude 3).
