The information below will assist you in understanding our values and what distinguishes us from many other ministries. 

We are Family First

At the heart of our ministry is family unity in Christ.  We believe that the continual demise of the family is destroying our nation.  We feel it is vital that we the church begin to address issues that will assist parents in preserving their own relationships while strengthening love and discipline toward their children that they, too, will grow in the knowledge of God's Word and lead healthy and productive lives as they mature.   To combat many domestic issues we offer counseling and support Bible-based Christian family workshops and seminars.  Bible centered education on marriage and divorce is much needed since statistics tell us that 3 out 5 marriages end in divorce. 

The single parent brings to the church many special needs as well.  We feel that the church, not the government, should be the center of strength and support for that individual and their children.  We will strive to convey God's perfect love, Bible centered education, and assistance, to those that are in need of direction and support. 

Another way to help families is by supporting fellowship in small peer units.  Though the church is instrumental in a families spiritual welfare, a personal walk with God is determined by the time that is given to Him privately in prayer, Bible study, and meditation. Many churches have services or special programs nearly every night of the week; but we believe that families are better strengthened when they spend quality time at home together as well as the regular scheduled church services.  Families should be encouraged to worship together, too, instead of being segregated by age or gender as many programs in the church seek to do.  Parents should always be respected as the authority over their own children. 

We are Community Minded 

We are open to any person regardless of race, creed, or color.  All mankind are descendents of Adam and Eve making each of us Brothers and Sisters in God's sight.  We believe the church to be an asset to the community, not a stumbling block nor a haven for those with bigotry in their hearts. 

We are Mission Minded

We believe in the spreading of the Gospel to those that are called of God into the mission field.  It is necessary to support missionaries that labor for the Kingdom through their calling.  They should be uplifted in prayer as well as supported financially.

We are Evangelical

We believe it is the sole purpose and will of God for each individual to be a witness to the lost.  We believe in the spreading of the Gospel to a lost and dying world through example, preaching, and teaching. Salvation is through faith alone and not by any work or sacrament of the church.

We are Fundamental

We believe that the Holy Bible is the inspired and inerrant Word of God.  It is relevant to all issues of life.  The Word of God must be lived up to, not made ineffective by watering down nor by discarding chapters and verses of text to meet the needs of pagan, backslidden, or sinner man. 

We are Spirit Filled

We believe that God is only limited by His own Word, not time, dispensation, or any other manner; therefore, we acknowledge the moving of His Spirit in the local church as well as the lives of each Christian.  God still heals the sick, delivers the addicted, calms the fearful, protects the helpless, relieves the burdened, strengthens the weak, and gives peace to the confused through and by the power of His Spirit working alone or through the gifts and manifestations of the Holy Ghost. 

We are Holiness

We believe Holiness to be God's standard of living.  Garments, cosmetics, and jewelry do not define Holiness.  Holiness is simply the meek and humble expression of righteousness we exemplify to others, which we have obtained through Jesus Christ and his Righteousness only.  We believe that through the sanctifying power of the Holy Ghost, Christians that will yield to the Lord will make changes in their lives (such as modesty, etc. etc. etc.) that personify the character of Christ. 

We are the Body of Christ

We believe that God has called all sinners to repentance and that their time, talent, and tithe is to be used for the building of the local church.  God expects and commands each saved soul in the church to find their place in the Body, that he or she may seek after fulfilling God's will through means that God has gifted them with.
