What We Believe 

Read Complete Articles of Faith

The Bible

We believe that the Bible is the final authority in all matters pertaining to Christian faith and practice.

God

We believe there is only one living and true God - perfect, infinite and eternal.

II Tim. 3:16; II Pet. 1:21; John 10:35

Humanity

We believe that human beings were created by God but we have alienated ourselves from Him and we are in need of reconciliation.

Jesus Christ

We believe that God became man in the person of Jesus Christ and that Jesus Christ is both completely divine and completely human.

Holy Spirit

We believe that the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity and that He empowers us for life and service.

Salvation

We believe that through the gift of Jesus' death on the cross our rebellion can be forgiven, and through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ we can be reconciled to God.

The Church

We believe that the Church is universal and that it is manifested locally through companies of Christ followers, meeting together as the "Bride of Christ."

We value church membership! Learn more at the link below:

Ordinances

We believe that both Baptism and The Lord's Supper are visible signs of the realities of salvation. We are commanded to observe them, but we do not depend on them for salvation.

Last Things

We believe that Christ will return at God's appointed time.

Church Leadership

Grace Chapel is a congregationally-governed church, led and served by the Board of Elders, who are responsible for providing leadership, guidance, and accountability for the overall ministry of Grace Chapel. This group includes lay leaders who are elected at our Annual Meeting, and our Senior and Executive Pastors.

Operationally, we are led by an Executive Team made up of seven staff members: five long-term and two at large who rotate on and off the team on an annual basis. 

Our campuses are led by our Campus Pastor Team, and supported by our Central Ministries and Ministry Support teams.
