What we believe matters. Truth can be known because God has revealed the truth in Jesus Christ.

"The dominant conclusion among progressive Christians is that love means affirming whatever journey a person wants to be on, such that they don’t feel judged….Whereas Christians with a biblical worldview should understand love to be the act of wanting for others what God wants for them, progressive Christians tend to understand love as the act of wanting for others what they want for themselves." -Natasha Crain, Faithfully Different

“Love, I have come to learn, is not God. Flip that. God is love. The God revealed in Jesus Christ is the definition of love. This difference changes everything...The cross is where that strange and holy God most clearly reveals his love...The cross is God’s intimate act of self-giving, his gentle way of critiquing our love of money, sex, self, romance, fame and power. These weaker loves, these idols we raise in our own image, could never compare with his infinitely greater love...It sounds like heresy in our culture, but romantic and sexual love are not the deepest expressions of our humanness. Unconditional love – God’s love- is.” - David Bennett, A War of Loves

A Prayer: “Jesus I trust in you as the Son of God, my Savior, and Lord over all creation. I confess and repent of any known sin in my life. I surrender to your love and lordship in my life. I receive your grace to save me and continually transform me as I follow you one step at a time. I rely on your love to empower me to participate in the coming of your kingdom on earth as it is in heaven. Amen.”

"For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you. We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives, so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and giving joyful thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of light. For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins." - Colossians 1:9-14 NIV

Any form of adherence to or acceptance of “Christian” Nationalism is a threat to our Christian faith and the witness of Christ’s church in the world.

"But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body." - Philippians 3:20-21
