Celebrating 30 Years

Since 1996 we have been Pastoring in Newaygo, MI. God called us here, and our ‘Yes’ was followed with a promise that we would reach the world from this small, beautiful town. 

God has been faithful with that promise, through Missionaries we support, Online Services, the members of our church throughout the years, and now a church plant in Bitely.

Our Statement of Faith

This Statement of Faith does not exhaust the extent of our beliefs. The Bible itself, as the inspired and infallible Word of God, speaks with final authority concerning truth, morality, and the proper conduct of mankind and is the sole and final source of all that we believe.

We believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible, authoritative Word of God, without error in the original languages.

We believe the one true God manifests Himself in three persons – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His atoning death, His bodily resurrection, His complete conquest over the powers of Satan, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His sure return in like manner as He went away.

We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling born again Christians are enabled to live Godly lives.

We believe that the new birth is essential for the salvation of lost men and women, and that this salvation is wholly by grace through faith.

We believe the church consists of all those who truly believe in Jesus Christ and in His atoning death, and who trust in Him as their personal Lord and Savior.

We believe in a second experience following the new birth, which is referred to as the baptism of the Holy Spirit, or the infilling of the Holy Spirit. This experience is not required for the new birth, but is pertinent to living a successful and impacting life in Christ. Matt. 3:11
We believe that all the gifts of the Holy Spirit in 1 Corinthians 12 are available and operational in the body of Christ today.
We believe that redemption was provided for the spirit, soul, and body in the atonement of Jesus Christ.
We believe in the ordinance of Baptism in water by immersion in the name of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. We also believe in the ordinance of Holy Communion as taught by Jesus.
We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are lost unto eternal damnation; they that are saved unto eternal life.
We believe in the spiritual unity of all who believe in our Lord Jesus Christ.
