Transforming: Who We Are

We believe the role of our church is to live lives that reflect the truth and love of Christ. We are called to impact the individual, the family, the church, and our community by changing the whole house. We do this through knowing, showing & being God’s love. (Romans 12:12; 2 Corinthians 3:18; Galatians 5:22-23; 2 Corinthians 5:17)

Authentic

Here at Grace we have an amazing teaching team that speaks truth in love. We believe in the absolute truth of God and that all scripture is God breathed and profitable for teaching. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)

We encourage and believe in having authentic relationships with God and one another. We work at building relationships that help, support & challenge one another to live the way that God instructs. We encourage each other to live lives of honesty and keeping each other accountable to the Word of God. (Hebrews 10:24; 1 Peter 4:8-10)

Generous

We are developing a church community that understands how to give & live generously with our time and talents. Financially we use 10% as a standard based on the Old Testament (Deuteronomy 26:12-13). Investing/giving comes from a love for God (2 Corinthians 8:2-3). We invest/give out of service to others (1 John 3:16-17). We invest/give generously out of trust and love (Mark 12:41-44). We are called to lead as servants giving our time & talents to fulfill the purpose & passion of our church (1 Peter 4:10; Mark 10:45; Acts 20:35).

Shifting: What We Do - Tools/Methods

We believe that God's truth(message) does not change but the tools and methods we use to reach the lost can change. Both as individuals and as a church, we shift from observing to engaging to influencing our church & community. (1 Corinthians 9:19-23; Hebrews 13:8)
