I believe that every person is made in the image of God and is, therefore, intrinsically of immeasurable value.
I believe that God’s image has been defaced in each human life, by reason of Sin and sins, and that each person’s trajectory from birth is eternal separation from God, away from all that is divine.
I believe that God’s image can be restored in every person, through faith in and by the grace of Christ Jesus, the only Lord.
I believe that once restored by God through Christ, every person is then potentially freed to do the works preordained for them to do by the Creator.
I believe that each person is uniquely talented by God, and that talents are spiritual gifts in disguise awaiting salvation to be kindled by the Holy Spirit to be used for God’s glory, rather than ours.
I believe that each redeemed person is called to tell their personal story of God’s dealings within them, and that this can best be accomplished by the infilling of the Holy Spirit.
I believe that life is on loan and that every person will give an accurate account to God the Creator — regarding the use of time, treasure, and talent in this life – on Judgment Day.
I believe that life is meant to be enjoyable and fulfilling, which can only be realized by living according to God’s Word, seasoned by creativity and adventure.
I believe that loving God and people with abandon is the summation of God’s Word, His Law.
I believe that eternity is real and long, and that every thought and action in this one and only life should be measured against that truth.
