What we believe
-
Scripture is breathed by God’s Holy Spirit and enlivens the hearts of believers.
-
God created the heavens and the earth and proclaimed them good (Genesis 1). However, all human beings have fallen short of God's goodness for their lives and are in need of salvation through the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ, God’s only-begotten son. There is no way to the Father except by Christ. Salvation is by faith. One of the manifestations of faith is cooperation with the work of God’s Holy Spirit, who guides us to greater love, greater compassion, and greater Christlikeness.
-
Our identity as believers is in Jesus Christ only.
-
God created two sexes, male and female, and offered a plan for both to exist in purity. Marriage is a holy union of one male and one female.

Tenderness
Eve Tushnet, 2021
In Tenderness, Eve Tushnet explores what it means to be a same-sex-attracted Christian in a world that condones and affirms same-sex relationships.

FAQ: Trending question
What did Jesus say about same-sex attraction?
It is often claimed that Jesus did not preach specifically about SSA, so He had no opinion about it. This claim is false. Jesus did, in fact, speak on the matter of SSA, but He did so using the terminology of His time. His statement is, nevertheless, perfectly comprehensible to a believer in any time. When asked about marriage, Jesus taught thus...
