Our Bedrock Beliefs

God’s people are called to use their abilities and their resources to do God’s work in the world today.

God created the universe in love and placed human beings within it to enjoy and to care for creation.

I n Jesus Christ, God calls all people to new life. Christ’s life, death, and resurrection are the means of God’s reconciliation with all people.

The life of Christ is the model for the lives of God’s people.

The Holy Spirit empowers us to live as God’s people.

The Bible tells the story of God’s people in history in such a way that it becomes God’s Word to God’s people today. All tools of scholarship are welcome as we seek understanding from the scriptures.

Worship, study, and service are the foundations of the Christian life.
