Firstly – we are worshippers; transformed and fuelled by the grace of God in Jesus. We strive to love God with all our hearts, soul, mind and strength (Luke 10:27)
Secondly – we are family; God’s adopted children. The bible is full of all the ways the church is called to love, care for, encourage, and serve one another (John 13:34)
Lastly – everyone’s a witness. We want to love our neighbour in word and deed as we seek to care for the least, the last, and the lost (Matt 28:19-20)
We believe in the absolute truthfulness, sufficiency and final authority of Scripture. This value is expressed through the Bible having the central place in governing doctrine, practice, ethos and patterns of church life.
The message of grace in the gospel is central to everything we do; in Christian life and the local church. Grace ought to be expressed and enjoyed in relation to salvation, sanctification, church life, relationships and leadership. The gospel should be constantly, and consistently celebrated in the heart of a believer. For salvation is a work of God from start to finish.
We believe that all the gifts in Scripture are available and desirable today for building the local church and extending the Kingdom of God. We believe every Christian is filled, and should go on being filled with the Spirit as part of God’s desire to empower us for Christian life and witness.
