OUR BELIEFS

We believe in living out our Christian faith as effectively as possible and making an impact on those who do not know the great news about Jesus Christ

At our churches we believe in...

- The one true God who lives eternally in three persons - the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit

- The love, grace and sovereignty of God in creating, sustaining, ruling, redeeming and judging the world

- The divine inspiration and supreme authority of the Old and New Testament Scriptures, which are the written Word of God - fully trustworthy for faith and conduct

- The dignity of all people, made male and female in God's image to love, be holy and care for creation, yet corrupted by sin, which incurs divine wrath and judgement

- The incarnation of God's eternal Son, the Lord Jesus Christ - born of the virgin Mary; truly divine and truly human, yet without sin

- The atoning sacrifice of Christ on the cross: dying in our place, paying the price of sin and defeating evil, so reconciling us with God

- The bodily resurrection of Christ, the first fruits of our resurrection; his ascension to the Father, and his reign and mediation as the only Saviour of the world

- The justification of sinners solely by the grace of God through faith in Christ

- The ministry of God the Holy Spirit, who leads us to repentance, unites us with Christ through new birth, empowers our discipleship and enables our witness

OUR VISION

- Our churches sit at the heart of our communities

- Our churches welcome every person
