OUR MISSION

Our mission is to lead people* into the Presence* of God, devotion to His Word*, authentic fellowship with others*, and discovering their ministry.*

* People: multi-generational, multi-racial, and multi-ethnic from all walks of life, backgrounds, and denominations.

* Presence: Christ exalting worship that encompasses liturgy, sacraments, sacred space, authenticity, and excellence.

* Word: that is, the Old and New Testaments as the only perfect rule for all matters of faith, doctrine, and conduct.

* Others: fellowship is more than friendship, so we develop and engage in compelling Christian community.

* Ministry: the equipping of the saints to serve within the church, and live missionally outside the church.

OUR BELIEFS

THE BIBLE
We believe that the Bible is God's message to all people and the only perfect authority for faith, doctrine and conduct. We also believe that the Word of God is "spirit and life" and requires of us a spiritual and living response.

HOLY SPIRIT
We believe in a conscious dependence on the Holy Spirit, who, with the Father and Son, calls the church into being, empowers its ministry, guides its mission, and supplies the resources needed by the Church community to follow Jesus.

THE CHURCH
We believe in the Church as the community of believers, characterized by mutual participation in and sharing new life in Christ. Membership in the Redeemer family is by confession of faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. It is open to all who believe. Uniformity in theological/creedal details is not expected. What is required is that one be "born anew to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead." (1 Peter 1:3)

BAPTISM
Simply put, baptism is a public act that celebrates your decision to trust Jesus Christ with your life. Baptism is an act of obedience, and a step of acknowledgment that is representative of the fact that Jesus died on the cross, was buried and walked out of the grave, alive, so that you can also have abundant life. In baptism, we publically claim God and God publically claims us. If you've made a decision to follow Jesus Christ and you've never been baptized, baptism is the next step in your spiritual journey.

FREEDOM IN CHRIST
We believe in the reality of freedom in Christ. We recognize that differences of opinion exist concerning theological issues, worship styles, and sacramental practices. But we believe that these differences are overcome through sharing a common life in Jesus. We believe that each person is unique and so is their experience in Christ. In Jesus Christ we have freedom, constrained by His Lordship and His Holy Word.
