It's our mission to be a place where the people of the
South Columbus community feel welcomed and loved.
Our church and its leaders are led by the Holy Spirit to do all that we can to save the lost and to strengthen Christians.
It is truly our desire to continually create a space for God to show up and move among His people. It doesn't matter to us what you wear when you visit, where you've been, or what you've been through - we invite you to join us with an open mind and an open heart.

Faith can be a complicated endeavor, but at the core this is what we believe.
We believe that God is the creator, sustainer, and religious ruler of the universe. He has revealed himself in nature, and in scriptures of the Holy Bible, as Father, Son and Holy Spirit, yet as one God.
He is God's unique Son; the only one of a kind. The Scripture teaches that He is God revealed in flesh. In His Divine nature He is truly God and in His human nature truly man. He is the One once crucified for man's sin, the now risen and glorified Savior and Lord who mediates between God and man and who gives us access to the Father through His intercession. None can come to the Father unless they come through Him.
God used holy people to write the Scriptures. They are, in both the Old and New Testaments, the very words God intended us to have. They are, as given by God, without error and are our only rule of faith and practice. We profit from them by learning the truth about many things; they also speak to us about wrongdoing; they even correct us and get us back on course as well as instructing us in right living.
God created man and woman in a state of innocence. Being tempted by Satan, they yielded and willfully disobeyed God, becoming a sinner and incurring God's judgment upon sin. All of Adam and Eve's descendants inherit his fallen nature and thus have a natural inclination to sin. When one comes to an age of accountability, they are guilty of sinning before God and in need of salvation.
God exercises a wise and benevolent providence over all beings and things. He maintains the laws of nature and performs special acts as the highest welfare of mankind and His created order of things require.
We receive pardon and forgiveness for our sins when we admit to God that we are sinners, when in godly sorrow we turn from them and trust in the work of Christ as redemption for our sin. This acceptance of God's great salvation involves belief in Christ's death on the cross as a substitute and the fact of God's raising Him from the dead as predicted. It is a salvation by grace alone and not of works.
It is God's will that all be saved, but since we have the power of choice, God saves only those who repent of their sin and believe in the work of Christ on the cross. Those who refuse in this life to repent and believe have no later chance to be saved and thus condemn themselves to eternal damnation by their unbelief.
