As an evangelical church, we uphold the teachings of the Bible first and foremost, believing the sixty-six books of the Bible to be without error in their original languages (Hebrew and some Aramaic in the Old Testament; Koine Greek in the New Testament). We also believe that there are certain essentials of the Christian faith which are just that, essential for all Christians to believe. As fallen humans subject to error, we recognize that differences (nonessentials) are present within Christian Orthodoxy, and so while we still seek to study and grow, nonetheless, we extend grace to one another in regards to those matters.
Our position in regards to essentials and nonessentials of the faith can be summed up in this motto: “In essentials, unity; in nonessential, liberty; in all things, charity.” For a complete list of the Essentials of the faith, we invite you to visit our church’s main website by clicking here.
