We are disciples of Jesus Christ, joined with Christian believers across time and space who embrace Jesus as God's Word made Flesh. We believe Jesus Christ must be at the center of our lives and making disciples of Jesus must be at the core of our ministry. We believe the Bible is the unique and authoritative Word of God, which teaches all that is necessary for faith and life. The prominence of God's Word over our lives shapes our priorities, and the unrivaled authority of the Bible directs our actions to be in concert with Christ's very best for our lives. We affirm the essential beliefs shared by Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, and Evangelical Christians throughout the world, as expressed in The Apostles Creed.
