our values

WE DISPLAY GRACE

We love and respect people regardless of their past, and we display Christ-like grace in a world that sorely lacks it. We’re committed to ministering to people who have experienced “graceless Christianity”, including those who’ve felt burned, burdened, or abandoned by the church in the past.

wE DECLARE THE GOOD NEWS

The Good News? The God who created you also loves you deeply and desires a relationship with you.

At Journey, we teach the Bible in a way that communicates this Good News and makes sense in today's world. Whether you’ve followed Jesus for decades, or you’re exploring faith for the first time, we believe you’ll find our teachings and the community here relevant in your life.

WE DEPEND ON GOD

We believe that no one will be all God intends them to be apart from complete dependence upon Him. We also believe that each person is on a spiritual journey with God and has a next step to take in their spiritual journey. We’re committed encouraging everyone at Journey to take their next step in faith.

WE DO GOOD

At Journey, the practice of Christianity is as important as the instruction of it. We help people use their gifts and talents to make a difference in people's lives around the city and around the world.

WHAT WE BELIEVE

- Gospel means “Good News”. And the good news is that the gates into the Kingdom of Heaven have been thrown wide open to all who will receive the free gift of salvation by placing their faith in Jesus Christ. The “With-God” life is available right now for all who think highly enough of Jesus to trust Him with their life.
- We believe that the Bible is the Word of God, fully inspired and without error in the original manuscripts, written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. We believe it has supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct.
- We believe that there is one living and true God, who eternally exists in three persons. Each person equal in every divine perfection, and the three work together to create, sustain, and redeem the world.
- We believe in God, the Father, an infinite, personal spirit, perfect in holiness, wisdom, power and love. We believe that He concerns himself mercifully in the affairs of all people, that He hears and answers prayer, and that He saves from sin and death all who come to Him through faith in Jesus Christ.
- We believe in Jesus Christ, God’s only begotten Son, conceived by the Holy Spirit. We believe in His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles and teachings. We believe in His substitutionary atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension into heaven, perpetual intercession for His people, and personal visible return to earth.
The Holy Spirit is a divine person, sent to dwell, guide, teach, empower the believer, and convince the world of sin, of righteousness, and of judgment.
