We believe that God speaks, and that it is right for us to listen, through prayerful meditation on God’s word (Hebrews 1:1-14, Joshua 1:8, Psalm 1:2, 119:11). Everything we do is directed by the 66 books of the Bible, God’s word written. We are committed to using the Bible in all aspects of ministry for the transformation of people’s lives (2 Timothy 3:14-17). We believe that God desires intimate relationships with His people and that he listens and responds to our prayers. We accept that everything we do is dependent on God, we will therefore dedicate ourselves to prayer in all things (Philippians 4:6, John 14:13). God loves us so much he sent his Son to die for us (John 3:16, Romans 5:8, 1 John 4:10). We strive to love God and people sacrificially as Christ loved us (John 15:12-13, Mark 12:29-31). We will reflect Christ’s love in our community for God’s glory (John 13:34-35, Ephesians 5:1-2). Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation and eternal life (John 3:14-18, 14:6). We will passionately tell this good news because it honours Christ (John 5:22-25), it offers salvation to all people (John 3:16), and is obedient to Christ’s instructions (Matthew 28:18-20). The Christian faith involves the ongoing transformation to be more like Jesus Christ (Romans 12:1-2) through the miraculous work of the Holy Spirit (2 Corinthians 3:17-18,Galatians 5:22-26), diligent study of the Bible (Psalm 1:2, 119:9,11, James 1:22-25, Hebrews 4:12), committed human effort (Philippians 2:12-13, Hebrews 12:1-3) and united Christian community (Colossians 3:12-16 , Ephesians 4:1-3). We strive to mature as Christians through every stage of life. Eternity. We seek to live in the light of the end and set our hearts on things that are above, not on earthly things (Colossians 3:1-17, Philippians 3:20).
