You will find a place with us.

Beliefs

We Believe God is still speaking.
God didn’t stop speaking at the end of the Bible.
God speaks through other people, nature, music, art, science, and the Bible.
Our faith is over 2,000 years old, our thinking is not.
We have the freedom and responsibility to engage the Bible with our experiences, questions and ideas.
Christ is the head of our church.

Our Core Values influence what we believe and how we act.


We are Jesus guided, intentionally inclusive, peace seeking, and justice committed.
Remembering these core values in our interactions, opinions, questions, doubts are respected and critical thinking is encouraged. We believe our compassionate God is still speaking.
