"We are a fellowship of Christians, bound together by our mutual faith in Jesus Christ, and respect for one another. We are not limited by any denomination, not responsible to any authority but God, and not obligated to promote anyone but Christ.
We are a Bible-centered church. We are aware that we are not perfect, but we strive to please God by "fixing our eyes on Jesus" (Hebrews 12:2). We believe that God expects us to demonstrate the Christian life through love, purity of life and commitment to others.
We respect the freedom of opinion of individual Christians, recognizing that there will be honest differences in all of us. We look to the Scriptures as our only doctrinal authority, and where those Scriptures are silent, we honor the wisdom of God by refusing to bind human opinions as creed."
