Concerning absolutes
Believer Church
What We Believe.
The bedrock of who we are and how we live.
Our Vision
A great and influential church.
We’re here to raise up a great and influential church that clearly exhibits life the way God intended it – the life we could never deserve – enjoyed from the place of His grace.
Our Creed
I am deeply loved and graced by God.
I am deeply loved and graced by God.
His life is a gift to me.
My life, well lived, is my gift to Him.
I am determined
To live the life I could never deserve
From the place of His grace.
My faith is audacious,
My spirit relentless.
I will not be deterred,
I will not quit
Until Jesus is fully honored
And a hurting world has heard the good news.
If not me, then who?
If not here, then where?
If not now, then when?
I am deeply loved and graced by God!
The bedrock of who we are
We believe Jesus is making all things new.
Our guiding principle

We have liberty.
Concerning all issues
