9 Core Commitments

6. Word

Looking at the biblical examples of Jesus and the early church, we are committed to the ministry of the Word. We believe that the Word of God empowered by the Holy Spirit has the power to transform lives. Therefore we are committed to diligent study, scripture memorization, personal evangelism, teaching and preaching. We believe that scripture is inspired by God and has authority in how we live our lives and function as a church. However, we do not believe that the goal of the ministry of the Word is simply the pursuit of biblical knowledge for its own sake. We must also become doers of the Word.
