What We Believe

The following are the core beliefs of Columbia Grove Covenant Church based on the foundational truths taught in the bible. All of our teaching and ministry is rooted in and flows out of these biblical doctrines.

Jesus Christ is at the center of everything. We believe that Jesus is the only one who can reconcile us to God. He lived a sinless and exemplary life, died on the cross in our place, and rose again to prove His victory and empower us for life. We believe that Jesus Christ is coming back again as He promised.

We believe in one eternal God who is the Creator of all things. He exists in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. He is totally loving and completely holy.

We believe that the Bible is God’s Word. It is the only perfect rule for faith, doctrine, and conduct. We anchor our lives in the Word by asking two key questions:
1) Where is it written? (What does the whole Bible say about this subject?)
2) How goes your walk? (How do apply these truths to our lives today?)

We believe that sin has separated each of us from God and His purpose for our lives.

We believe that in order to receive forgiveness and a fresh start with God, we must repent of our sins, believe in Jesus, and commit to His will for our lives.

We believe in the power and significance of the Church and the necessity of believers to meet regularly together.

We are part of a larger movement known as the Evangelical Covenant Church. Together we join God in God's mission to see more disciples among more populations in a more caring and just world.
