What We Believe
As
a community, and as individuals, on a spiritual journey to discover and
grow in our relationship with God, we believe that…
-
God loves and cares for everyone, in their daily lives, and that everyone
has a special purpose in this life.
-
God
created everything and everyone and grants all people their dignity and
worth.
-
The God of the Bible is the true God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
-
The Bible is the Word of God, and we need to read, study, and grow in our
understanding of it, so that we can strive to discern God’s Will for our
lives.
-
Jesus is the Savior of the world. His death on the cross and His
resurrection offer us a new life which connects us to God and each other.
-
Jesus is the Lord of Life. We are to believe, trust and praise Him;
as individuals and as a unique community.
-
Jesus invites us and needs us to become His disciples in the world today.
-
We are to love and respect all people as Jesus did.
-
There is a life beyond the present one, an eternal life, where there is no
suffering, poverty, violence or pain, but only love, peace, joy and
fulfillment.
-
Everything we are and everything we own belongs to God and is given to us
as a gift to be used to fulfill our purpose in life, and to help bring
restoration to the world.
