our mission

Our mission – To be a place where anybody can belong. Love God, love people, love Effingham & beyond.

about us

what we believe

we believe

in one eternal God, who reveals Himself as Father, Son, and Spirit;

therefore

we will pursue God personally and corporately to know and relate to the fullness of God’s being.

we believe

we were made for harmonious relationships, but humanity’s sin has broken our unity with God, each other, creation, and self;

therefore

we will continuously seek forgiveness, reconciliation, and the restoration of all things and welcome those who seek community and relationship with us.

we believe

God the Father lovingly created and mercifully sustains all things;

therefore

we will honor Him and join Him in graciously caring for all He created.

we believe

God the Son, Jesus, through His earthly life, death, and resurrection, is the only way to a restored and life-changing relationship with God and each other;

therefore

with gratitude and joy, we will live as restored people and share the life-changing, life-restoring message of the gospel.

we believe

God the Spirit is present, empowering and guiding His people to live like Jesus;

therefore

we will surrender our will and rely on the power of the Spirit so that we can follow the ways of Jesus.

we believe

the Bible is God’s true reliable message of salvation, nurturing our faith and giving hope;

therefore

we will learn from the Bible, seeking to live by its authority and guidance.

we believe

the Church is a connected community, led by Jesus Christ, that encourages and equips us to love God and live out the Gospel;

therefore

we will follow Christ’s example to love one another, faithfully proclaim the gospel, build healthy relationships, and serve others.

we believe

worship is living out a sincere expression of praise and gratitude, honoring God for who He is and what He has done;

therefore

we will live grateful lives with an attitude of worship in all circumstances, with our corporate worship as its collective expression.

we believe

a deep, intimate relationship with God produces righteous, blameless lives which are worth imitating;

therefore

we seek to live and look like Jesus in our thoughts, words, and actions as we walk with others on a journey of discipleship.

we believe

prayer is a heartfelt conversation with God, sharing our thoughts about everything and listening to His will;

therefore

with humility and boldness, we will pray and listen continuously, purposefully, and expectantly about all things.

we believe

Jesus is God the Son. Surrendering one’s self to Him as Savior and Lord is the only way to be at peace with God the Father;

therefore

with gratitude and joy, we will live as restored people at peace with God, sharing the life-changing, life-restoring message of the gospel.

we believe

baptism to consistently be present in scripture whenever people are saved by finding peace with God;

therefore

we baptize with water, modeling what we read in scripture.

we believe

mankind is saved only by God’s grace through faith;

therefore

we ask for God’s forgiveness and willingly surrender control of our lives to Jesus.
