Christians, we live today in light of that future reality. It is hope for us now – hope for the transformation and shalom of people, cities, and the world now.

Story

We believe that each of our stories are a part of a larger story – God’s story.

Wholeness

God cares about every part of us. Emotionally, Physically, Spiritually, and Mentally. So, we see it as a primary function of the church to develop people holistically.

Generosity

There is freedom in the recognition that everything we have in life has been given us to us by God and belongs to God. It’s this freedom that enables us to hold on to our “stuff” (i.e. money, resources, time, talent, etc…) with a very light grip.

our Beliefs

We are a faith community that finds our roots in the historic Christian tradition. The way we live out our faith is shaped both by these Creeds and our Values. We do our best to do all things in love in the spirit of the wise counsel of a German theologian, Rupertus Meldenius, who around the year 1627 said,

“In essentials, there is unity. In nonessentials, there is liberty. And in all things, there is love.”
