BELIEFS/VALUES
We believe that God’s far more interested in relationships than “religion”. The relationship He’s MOST interested in having is the one He has with you and me. To make this possible, He came to live among us through the birth of His Son, Jesus. Jesus taught the people what God’s Kingdom was really about and because of that, He was crucified to pay the price for all of mankind’s failures and sin. The Bible teaches that it’s by accepting Jesus as our Savior and asking Him to live in us and through us that we literally become “New Creations”. As Christ-followers, we’re able to make a positive difference in our home, neighborhood, and community by serving as His hands and feet on earth. Here are our beliefs…
BELIEFS
ABOUT THE BIBLE
We believe the entire Bible is the inspired Word of God and that men were moved by the Spirit of God to write the very words of Scripture. Therefore, we believe the Bible is without error.
ABOUT GOD
We believe in one God who exists in three distinct persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe that Jesus Christ is the second member of the Trinity (the Son of God) who became flesh to reveal God to man and to become the Savior of the lost world.
ABOUT MANKIND
We believe that mankind was created in the image of God to have fellowship with Him but became alienated in that relationship through sinful disobedience. As a result, man is incapable of regaining a right relationship with God through his own effort alone.
ABOUT SALVATION
We believe that the blood of Jesus, shed on the cross, provides the sole basis for the forgiveness of sin. Therefore, salvation occurs only when people place their faith in the death and resurrection of Jesus as sufficient payment for their sin.
ABOUT BAPTISM
The Bible is very clear about the place baptism plays in the life of every believer and it’s one of those non-negotiable steps that everyone who wants Jesus to be their Lord and Savior must take. In fact, in the Bible, this was a natural part of a person’s conversion experience. The word “baptism or baptize”, means to “immerse…to dip or to plunge”.
Baptism is an outward sign of an inward change. It symbolizes what took place in his/her heart at the time they surrendered their life to Jesus. It’s that place, according to Romans 6, where we bury the old life and are raised to a new one.
It symbolizes being washed clean, having our sins forgiven and where we receive the gift of God’s Holy Spirit. And it’s an act of obedience that demonstrates our submission to God.
ABOUT THE CHURCH
We believe that the church is the body of Christ, of which Jesus Christ is the head. The members of the church are those who have trusted by faith the finished work of Christ. The purpose of the church is to glorify God by loving Him and by making Him known to the lost world.
If you’re interested in chatting with someone about what it means to become a follower of Jesus, or if you have any other questions you would like to ask, send an email to… I’d love to hear from you!
CORE VALUES
THE BIBLE
Without the proper foundations, every organization, individual and family will eventually drift off course. The Word of God is the final authority on all issues of life and is the ultimate source of truth intended to transform our everyday lives.
COMMUNITY
Simply stated, we believe that life change happens best in the context of “Community”. We are committed to helping people get plugged into a Bible Study Group where they can begin to experience genuine community.
EVANGELISM
Witnessing isn’t something that we do, it is what we are. We believe that intentionally fostering relationships with people that are far from God is the most natural context for evangelism to happen.
OUTREACH
Being the hands and feet of Jesus to reach out in love to our community is definitely a priority for us here at Kansas Christian Church.
WORSHIP
We seek to glorify God by creating an atmosphere of worship that is focused on Jesus and leading people to know Him. Our worship genuinely consists of a blend between hymns and contemporary Christian music that encourage congregational worship and singing.
SERVICE
Every individual is gifted to serve. We believe that ministry happens best as a unified community of servants come together to express their spiritual gifts. Strategic service places the time, talents and energies of people at the place of critical need and passion.
