We
Believe...
the Bible is
the inspired, inerrant Word of God.
there is one God, eternal
in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the
Holy Spirit.
in the deity of Jesus Christ: His virgin birth, sinless life,
miracles, atonement, shedding His blood for the remission of our
sins, His resurrection and ascension, and His glorious Second Coming.
that everyone can be born again by the transforming power of the
Holy Spirit by receiving Jesus Christ as Savior, Lord and Master,
resulting in a personal relationship for eternity.
in the indwelling of the Holy Spirit at conversion and being continually
filled with the Spirit, who empowers the Christian to live a victorious
Spirit-filled life and to witness to others.
in the resurrection of born-again believers to eternal llife with
Jesus, and of the lost to eternity in hell apart from Him.
in the spiritual unity of all believers in Jesus Christ everywhere,
regardless of race and color.

A
group of ordinary people who have a God-given urgency in their souls
and fire in their hearts...People whose destinies and futures are
wrapped up in the mission to which Jesus has called them...A group
of individuals challenging each other to reach their full potential
in Christ...People who recognize Christianity is not just for themselves
but also for the world around them...Regular, everyday people who
share the Gospel in the language and culture of the people incarnating
the love of Jesus to the surrounding world...A group of ordinary
people committed to releasing the love of God and the transforming
power of the Gospel into a sin-darkened world.
A sin-darkedned world transformed by the love fo God and the power
of the Gospel working through these ordinary people...A world in
which great numbers of people repend of sin and walk in faith...A
world where the poor and afflicted receive care, and strongholds
of poverty, crime, injustice, and violence diminish..A world where
marriages, families, and children thrive.
Ordinary people going into a sin-darkened world, bending
their knee to God in Lordship, and expanding the kingdom of God
one heart at a time.
