The Message

We simply believe that the Bible is God's word. It has a message that is relevant for today's realities. Lives have been transformed by the impact of this message. The message is about forgiveness. It is about peace. It is about justice and reconciliation. But above everything else is a message about relationship. This relationship is defined in the language of love and the deeds of love. This love is willing to go beyond tolerance to reach out to our real need for truth and transformation. The truth is that everyone is valued by God. The truth is that our world is damaged. The truth is that 2000 years ago God broke into history to bring hope. Jesus lived and died and rose again. It is our relationship with him that defines who we are and how we live and relate to others. Let me give you an example of a thought from this ancient text that transforms the way that we live today.

"Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking on your own interests but each of you to the interests of others." Phil 2:2

"whatever happens, as citizens of Heaven live in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ."

Philippians 1:27

We live on earth to bring good news in a way that will help transform lives. Our values are rooted in the heart of God's love for all people.
