1. CENTRALITY OF THE WORD OF GOD
“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness”
We believe that the Bible is the only perfect rule for faith, doctrine and conduct. Our preaching and teaching in all settings reflects careful preparation, relevance, and creativity. Our people are equipped and growing in their ability to study and apply Biblical truth in ways that lead to a scripturally integrated life.
