WHAT WE BELIEVE

We believe in the Triune God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; who was and is and is to come. God created humans in his image and all are equally valuable. God craeated and loved the diversity of his creation. From the beginning, God wanted a relationship with us, but when humans sinned it broke that relationship. So he made a way to restore that relationship by sending Jesus as the perfect sacrifice for all. When we believe Jesus died as the sacrifice for our sin, we are saved and have eternal life: an unbroken relationship with God forever. We believe all people are sinners in need of a Savior. When we genuinely believe and receive this salvation, we are forgiven and free, and we are grateful and turn from our sins. We desire to love God back and love all the people he has created, which is what he has commanded us to do. The Holy Spirit leads us toward this understanding and toward growth in our relationship with God. 

 

We believe we can love God by worshiping him, learning about him, and by loving our neighbors. The Bible is God’s Word and is our authority. At The BLVD Church we worship God together, learn together, eat together, disciple one another, and love and care for each other and our neighbors. We are called to act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with our God and neighbors (Micah 6:8). We desire to be a witness to who God is and what he has done, and what that can mean for all people.

 

Ultimately we are a church that is called to fulfill the Great Commission: to make disciples who make disciples.
