EXALTING CHRIST

BUILDING THE CHURCH

SERVING THE WORLD


We are a church that embraces the gospel of the grace of God in Jesus Christ, holds firmly to the riches of the historic Christian faith, nurtures a community of believers, and mobilizes ministries to bring about personal and cultural renewal through the lordship of Jesus over all things.

We Exist to Glorify Christ in Joyful Community through Worship, Fellowship, and Witness.


THE GOSPEL

We are a gospel-centered church. The gospel is the good news about God and his Son. Through the person and work of Jesus Christ, God has accomplished eternal salvation for all who believe this good news and put their trust in him. Through this same gospel, God gives us his Holy Spirit—the Spirit of his Son—to transform our hearts and minds so that we live and love like Jesus. We are not merely justified by the gospel and then move on to sanctification through our own efforts. Rather, the gospel is both the way to salvation through faith and the way we grow and mature in faith. This good news is central to our mission as the body of Christ. Everything flows from the reality of Jesus. In all that we do, we strive to point people to the gospel and help them believe it and live it.

THE HISTORIC CHRISTIAN FAITH

We are a Reformed catholic church. We recognize that we are not the first church, the only church, or even the best church Jesus has in the world. Jesus established an ancient church, and he has been building it up in every age and in every nation. This is the small “c” catholic church, the universal body of Christ in the world. We understand ourselves to be part of that universal church, and we maintain our connection to it by holding in common with it the historic Christian faith, which is summarized in the Apostles’ Creed and the Nicene Creed. Within this common faith, we are committed to celebrating our Reformed and Presbyterian heritage without becoming sectarian. In our mission, we seek to cooperate with likeminded, evangelical believers and churches.

COMMUNITY

We are a local church. We take seriously the Bible’s teaching that we are the family of God. We seek to be a community of brothers and sisters in Christ where everyone feels a sense of belonging, where we care for, encourage, and forgive one another, and where deep bonds of Christian friendship are formed and strengthened. Another word for community in the Bible is “fellowship.” Biblical fellowship is more than sharing a meal. It means sharing a common life. Fellowship means being in each other’s homes, working and worshiping with each other, and going through life’s joys and challenges together. In our mission, we aim to build this kind of community by practicing biblical fellowship.

SERVICE

We are a kingdom church. God has exalted Jesus to his right hand and has given him all authority in heaven and on earth. The lordship of Jesus covers and claims all creation. The church is called to advance the kingdom of Christ, to love our neighbors as ourselves, and to work for the good of the neighborhoods where God has placed us. In our mission, we are committed to ministering in our community, nation, and world to bring about spiritual and cultural renewal for God’s glory. We seek to accomplish this by mobilizing our members to carry out ministries both inside and outside the church. We aim to help our members discover, define, develop, and deploy the spiritual gifts that God has given them.


KINGDOM KIDS Junior Church is Here!


We are excited to restart “Jr. Church” for children from Age 5 to Second Grade.


Our goal is to help raise up children for God’s Kingdom, so we have named this ministry “Kingdom Kids”! We will be using curriculum from “BibleZone Live”.


Children will start the regular Sunday service with their parents, and then go down to the Education Wing to have fun learning about God’s Kingdom. They will rejoin their parents in time for the end of the service.


We are thankful that so many have volunteered to serve this important ministry!

    The Pastor's Pen

    By Wesley Grubb November 1, 2024
    As I write this article, we are only a few days away from the 2024 presidential election. There are many people in our country who believe this is the most important election for the future of the United States. There is a sense across the political spectrum that the stakes have never been higher. This is a common feeling that many people begin to feel every four years. Every election feels more important than the last. I was reading the other day and came across this comment that really struck me. “The salvation of America and of the human race depends on the next election, if we believe the newspapers. But so it was last year, and so it was the year before, and our fathers believed the same thing forty years ago.” This comment captures the current anxiety of the upcoming election that many people in the news are feeling and fostering. We need salvation, and only one candidate can deliver. How many of you feel this way right now? This comment, cynical as it is, feels fresh and current. In reality, these words were written in October of 1848 by Ralph Waldo Emerson! That year the election was between Zachary Taylor and Lewis Cass. Remember how utterly crucial that election was? Me neither. But people at the time thought so. Has anything really changed? The 1848 election was 176 years ago. In 176 years from now, it will be 2200. What will those Americans think when they look back on the 2024 election? Chances are, Trump vs. Harris will seem to them what Taylor vs. Cass seems to us. I hear you scoffing, but they felt the same way in 1848 that you do today. This moment feels so big to us because we are in the middle of it. Time and distance give perspective though, and perspective gives a sense of proportion. Is this election important? It is. Are big things happening in our country? Definitely. But does “the salvation of America and of the human race depend on the next election”? No, certainly not. As Christians, we know where salvation comes from. We are the people of God, citizens of heaven, believers in the gospel of Jesus Christ, heirs of the coming kingdom. We do not look to politicians and the ways of this world to establish our own kingdoms. We should love our country, work and pray for its success, be informed, and vote. But never conflate your country with God’s kingdom, your party with God’s will, or your candidate with messianic hopes. When Jesus returns, he will establish his kingdom over all nations, including this one. When that happens, democracy is over. There is no democracy in a kingdom. No more voting, no more rights and freedoms as we enjoy them now. The conservative or liberal America that you are fighting for today will not exist in the kingdom. Jesus will rule this country with a rod of iron. His word will be law. His enemies will be subdued. Everyone will bend the knee. True salvation will finally come. Christians say they want this, but do we? Do we act like it? Do we live like it? For many Christians, the answer seems to be no. But what about you? Are you ready for a King?  Peace and grace, Pastor Wesley
