What We Believe

“Running With the Gospel”

Our foundation of faith

Rooted in the Word of God

We joyfully affirm these ten statements of faith and their supporting Scripture references.

01

The Holy Bible

We believe the Holy Bible is the inspired, infallible Word of God. It is our guide for faith, worship, Christian living, and spiritual growth.

Scripture: 2 Timothy 3:16–17

02

The One True God

We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.

Scripture: Matthew 28:19

03

Jesus Christ

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God, born of the Virgin Mary. He lived a sinless life, died on the cross for our sins, rose from the dead on the third day, and will return again.

Scripture: John 3:16; 1 Corinthians 15:3–4

04

Salvation Through Jesus Christ

We believe salvation is a gift of God's grace, received through faith in Jesus Christ. Salvation cannot be earned through good works.

Scripture: Ephesians 2:8–9; Romans 10:9–10

05

Baptism

We believe in baptism by immersion in water as an outward expression of an inward change through faith in Jesus Christ.

Scripture: Matthew 28:19–20

06

The Lord's Supper

We believe the Lord's Supper is a sacred ordinance established by Jesus Christ to remember His sacrifice until He returns.

Scripture: 1 Corinthians 11:23–26

07

The Church

We believe the church is the body of Christ, called to worship God, proclaim the Gospel, make disciples, and serve others through Christian love.

Scripture: Matthew 28:19–20; Ephesians 4:11–16

08

Prayer

We believe in the power of prayer and that God hears and answers the prayers of His people according to His will.

Scripture: Philippians 4:6–7

09

Christian Living

We believe Christians are called to live holy lives, demonstrate love and compassion, forgive others, and reflect the character of Jesus Christ.

Scripture: Ephesians 4:1–3

10

The Great Commission

We believe every believer has a responsibility to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ and help others grow in their relationship with Him.

Scripture: Mark 16:15; Matthew 28:19–20

“Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.”

Mark 16:15 · KJV
