Faith for everyday life — kept simple, real and understandable for everyone.
We are a body of believers who come together to worship and praise the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
We believe that Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary and was God in human form, and that he came to reconcile the world back to the heavenly Father. Jesus came to pay the debt of our sin — a debt we could never pay ourselves — and gave his life so that we can be free.
Jesus was crucified and buried, but rose from the dead by the power of the Holy Spirit. He is now seated at the right hand of the Father, interceding on behalf of us all.
We believe that anyone who puts their faith in Jesus and follows him is welcomed by the Father into his heart, and receives everlasting life.
“And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” — 1 Corinthians 13:13
A dictionary might say a Christian is simply “a person who believes in Jesus.” That’s a good start — but it falls a little short of the real meaning.
Followers of Jesus were first called “Christians” in Antioch (Acts 11:26) because their behaviour, their words and their lives looked like Christ. The word literally means “belonging to Christ.”
Being a Christian isn’t about going to church, being religious, or simply being a good person. As the Bible puts it, we are saved “not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy” (Titus 3:5).
A true Christian is someone who has put their faith and trust in Jesus — in his death on the cross for our sins and his resurrection. “To all who received him… he gave the right to become children of God” (John 1:12). The mark of that life is simple: love for others, and a desire to follow him.
