Our Christian Beliefs
Jesus Christ
We believe in the mystery of salvation through Jesus Christ. God became human in Jesus of Nazareth; and his life, death and resurrection demonstrate God’s redeeming love.
God
When we say the Apostles’ Creed, we join with millions of Christians through the ages in an understanding of God as a Trinity—three persons in one: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. God, who is one, is revealed in three distinct persons. “God in three persons, blessed Trinity” is one way of speaking about the several ways we experience God.
Holy SPirit
The Holy Spirit is God’s present activity in our midst. When we sense God’s leading, God’s challenge, or God’s support or comfort, it’s the Holy Spirit at work.
Human Beings
Genesis 1:27 asserts that we’ve been made in the image of the Creator.
The Church
The church is the body of Christ, an extension of Christ’s life and ministry in the world today.
The Bible
We believe that the Bible is the primary authority for our faith and practice.
God’s Reign
The kingdom or reign of God is both a present reality and future hope.
