Our Core Beliefs

We love God and we love others and we’re compelled to live this out (Mt 22:37-40; 1 Jn 3:16-18; 1 Jn 4:19).

Every person is created in God’s image and has value (Gen 1:27; Ep 2:10; Ps 139:1-18).

We live in a fallen world that can only be reconciled to God through Jesus (Jn 3:16-17; Col 1:13; Rom 5:10).

Transformation is possible through Jesus; He heals, restores, and sets people free from spiritual bondage (Is 61; Jn 8:31; Rom 12:2; 2 Col 5:17).

A safe place and nurturing environment enable the restoration process and growth without fear (Mt 11:28-29; Ps 23:1-6; Ps 32:7).

Community is essential to the restoration process (Prb 27:17; Mt 18:20; 1 Cor 12:24b-27; 1 Pet 4:8-10).
