OUR STATEMENT OF FAITH

Our Beliefs

We believe the entire Bible is the inspired, infallible Word of God. It is our ultimate guide for faith, truth, and how we live our daily lives. It is entirely relevant to our modern world and the absolute authority for our church family.

We believe in one eternal God who exists in three distinct persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. He is the loving Creator of everything and desires a deeply personal relationship with each of us.

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He lived a sinless life, died on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins, and rose again on the third day. Because of His sacrifice, salvation is a free gift. We cannot earn it through good works; we are saved strictly by grace through faith in Jesus.

We believe the Holy Spirit lives inside every follower of Christ. He comforts us, empowers us with spiritual gifts, guides us in truth, and gives us the strength to live out our faith boldly and authentically in our community.

The Church isn't a building; it's a family of believers. We are united by our faith in Jesus and our mission to share His grace with the world. At New Grace, we believe in doing life together, supporting one another, and being a beacon of hope right here at the "end of the road" and beyond.

We believe that humanity was created to exist forever. We will either exist eternally separated from God by sin, or eternally with God through forgiveness and salvation. Heaven and Hell are real places, and God’s desire is that no one should perish, but that all would experience eternal life through Christ.
