• In this age of anxiety, we still believe that peace comes from Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.

For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross. Colossians 1:19-20


  • In this age of confusion, we still believe that the Bible is the Word of God, inerrant and infallible.

All Scripture is given by inspiration of God. 2 Timothy 3:16


  • In this age of doubt, we still believe that Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary, that all of the miracles recorded in the Bible are true, and that Christ rose bodily from the dead to forgive our sins.

I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes. Romans 1:16


  • In this age of guilt, we still believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross to remove the power of sin, death, and Satan from our lives.

When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, having canceled the written code, with its regulations, that was against us and that stood opposed to us; he took it away, nailing it to the cross. Colossians 2:13-14


  • In this age of fear, we still believe that we are saved by God's grace alone, through faith alone.

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-- not by works, so that no one can boast. Ephesians 2:8-9


  • In this age of self-centeredness, we still believe that God acts selflessly through the Sacraments of Baptism and Holy Communion.

Baptism now saves us, not by washing dirt from the body, but by guaranteeing us a good conscience before God by the resurrection of Jesus Christ. 1 Peter 3:21


For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, "This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me." In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me."1 Corinthians 11:23-25



  • In this age of constant change, we still believe in the unchanging Holy Trinity: the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

"I the LORD do not change." Malachi 3:6


Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Matthew 28:19-20


"If you hold to my teaching, then you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." John 8:31-32
