Thus says the Lord: ‘Stand by the roads, and look, and ask for the ancient paths, where the good way is; and walk in it, and find rest for your souls.’


Jeremiah 6:16

Mission

To ground local believers in the biblical and historic Christian faith. We desire that God’s ancient truths be ever new in our lives. It is on these old, trustworthy paths that we find the antidote to modern chaos and confusion.

Vision

  1. To worship and glorify God in all things.
  2. To make known the person and work of Jesus Christ.
  3. To cultivate mature disciple of Jesus Christ.
  4. To advance Christ's kingdom in all areas of life.
  5. To defend and revitalize traditional Christianity.

Values

  1. We are Trinitarian. We glorify the united work of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in all things. The Trinity is our foundation for understanding theology, salvation, the storyline of Scripture, and a Christian worldview.
  2. We are Word-centered. We emphasize the Word of God through expositional preaching. We seek to responsibly interpret Scripture according to its language, genre, and context, and always with an eye to how to the text points us to Christ.
  3. We are theological and practical. We seek to avoid the pitfalls of shallow emotionalism on one side and cold rigidity on the other. We desire to be doctrinally sound and deeply heartfelt; to be reverent towards God and authentic with each other; traditional in our beliefs and practices and addressing relevant issues.
  4. We are credal and historical. We utilize the statements of faith and practices of the universal church throughout the ages such as the Apostles and Nicene Creeds, the church calendar, and elements of traditional liturgies, all within a Baptist framework.
  5. We are multi-generational. We encourage younger and older believers to worship and serve alongside one another, recognizing the value that each stage of life can bring to the church. We encourage families to fulfill their role as their children’s primary disciplers, and we welcome children in our church services.
