When a question comes up, we go to Scripture rather than tradition or opinion, and we are content to stop where the Bible stops.
Nobody here is pretending to have it all together. We are people who have messed up and found grace worth building a life on.
With about 100 members we are large enough to serve you well and small enough that you will not go unnoticed or unknown.
Our faith rests on the Bible, not on our own conclusions. We do not claim to have every answer, but we do believe God has given us a foundation we can stand on, and we work to let His Word shape what we teach and how we live.
In a world full of competing voices, the Bible is our guide (). It gives wisdom when the way ahead is unclear, comfort when we are worn down, and clarity when nothing else adds up (). Most of all, it shows us the way to salvation and eternal life (). Its truth is as reliable now as the day it was written. With so many opinions available, we hold to Scripture alone, refusing to go beyond what is written (; ). It is God’s unchanging Word, revealing His will for our lives ().
Jesus is our Savior and our light (; ). He is the one solid place to put your trust, offering forgiveness and a love that does not run out (; ). When everything else shifts, we find our anchor in Him (). He is the focus and the reason behind everything we do (). We call ourselves disciples because He is our model, and we work to live as He lived ().
Trying to be good enough is exhausting, and God never asked us to carry that weight. His grace lifts it off our shoulders. Forgiveness is not a wage we earn by our own record; it is a gift we receive through faith in Christ (). That grace is not permission to stay as we are. It moves us to grow and to leave sin behind (), and it gives us a life worth living, devoted to serving Him ().
Water baptism, by full immersion, is far more than a symbol. It is where our sins are washed away (; ). Buried with Christ and raised with Him, we begin an entirely new life (). Baptism does not save us as a good deed we perform; it is how we appeal to God for a clean conscience and for salvation from our sins (). It is an essential part of receiving God’s saving grace ().
We work to be exactly what we read about in the New Testament, a spiritual family belonging to the church Jesus Himself founded (). Christ alone is our head, not a person, a headquarters, or a manmade organization (; ). Each congregation stands on its own, guided by its own leaders according to Scripture (; ). Here every member has a part to play, and we grow closer to God and to one another together (; ).
Worship should be simple and sincere. When we gather, our aim is to honor God the way He asks to be honored () and to stir one another toward love and good works (). Like the first Christians, we sing together a cappella (; ), pray earnestly (), remember Christ in the Lord’s Supper (), listen to the preaching of God’s Word (), and give as we have been blessed (; ).
We come to the Lord’s Supper with reverence, remembering the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus (). Every first day of the week we break bread and share the fruit of the vine, following the example of the first Christians (). It is not a ritual we rush through. It is a weekly moment to reflect, give thanks, and steady ourselves in the grace we have received through Christ ().
Evangelists preach the word and share the good news of Jesus with everyone ().
