The Bible is God's Word to all people. God breathed the words of scripture through human authors and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness and is in all ways relevant to our daily lives.

While one would never find the word "Trinity" in the Bible, the Bible teaches that God exists as one being in the form of three persons, historically known as:  God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.  Each member of the Trinity serves different functions.

God the Father:  God is great. God is all powerful, all knowing, ever present, unchanging, completely worthy of our trust, and above all, holy.  It is in God that we live, move and exist. God is good:  God is loving, compassionate and faithful to God's promises and people.

God the Son: Jesus Christ is completely human but, at the same time, completely God. He is the only plan for bringing people who are far from God back into a right relationship with God. He lived a perfect life, so that He could be a substitution for us in satisfying God’s demands for perfection. He defeated death in His resurrection so that we could have life.

God the Holy Spirit: His presence assures us of our relationship with Christ. He guides believers into all truth and exalts Christ. He convicts people of their sin, God’s righteousness, and the coming judgment. He comforts us, gives us spiritual gifts, and makes us more like Christ.

God created humanity in their own image and part of that means that we are meant to live in paradise in relationship with God.  And while our bodies will die, our souls, the part of us that makes us who we are, will live on forever. In eternity, we will either exist separated from God by sin or in union with God through His grace in giving us faith in Jesus for salvation.

Humanity is the pinnacle of God's creation and, in our original intent and design God created us as good.  We were created to have a perfect relationship with God but became separated from God due to our sinful disobedience.  Despite our continued problem of sin and bad choices, God redeems us and gives us sacred worth being fearfully and wonderfully made, worthy of respect and love.

Jesus declares very clearly, "I am the way, the truth and the life and no one comes the Father except by me." God gives us the grace to recognize Jesus as the Way, receive His truth in our lives and discover eternal life in Jesus.  While our sin set us apart from God, God's grace and Jesus' death and resurrection provide the restoration of our relationship with God.  Salvation is a free gift from God and can not be earned through our own efforts.

The church is a connection of believers in Jesus that are on a journey of discipleship, worship and ministry together. The church provides a sense of community, connectedness and "one-another-ness" that is seen vibrantly in the Book of Acts in the Bible.  The church, in it's finest form, provides hope to the world by bringing the Gospel message in relevant ways to local communities.
