Our Central Hope
To be a people, set free by God, to live out the gospel of Jesus Christ:
​
-
by receiving the gospel, through a growing awareness of God, others and self through all life’s experiences,
-
by believing the gospel through faith born of Christ’s atoning sacrifice and the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit,
-
and by living the gospel by reflecting it to a world badly in need of redemption.
