Vision: Love God, love people, make disciples and be His witness.

Mission: To provide comprehensive and accurate Biblical teaching that glorifies the name of God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Matthew 28:18-19) where disciples learn to love the Lord God (Luke 10:27, Matthew 22:37) and follow Him (Matthew 16:24; John 12:26). To engage in evangelistic witnessing that communicates Jesus Christ as the Son of God (Acts 1:8) who is the savior of the world (John 3:16). To emulate God’s love to the broken, hurting, and lost (Matthew 22:39; Galatians 2:10; James 1:27; 1 John 4:7, 21).

Organizational Structure: The governing body is led by the headship of Christ (Ephesians 1:22, 4:15, 5:23; Colossians 1:18, 2:10) through the guidance of the Holy Spirit (Matthew 23:10; Acts 1:1-8; 1 Corinthians 2:10-13). Each member of the governing body is first accountable to the Lord, then to each other.
