We believe the music we sing should be intentionally Scriptural, God-glorifying, Christ-centered, congregational, fervent, and distinct. Our voices are our main instruments and the rest of our instrumentalists play to encourage our congregation to worship the Lord with joy. We sing songs from many different decades. On any given Sunday you could hear songs from the 1520's and the 2020's.

While many people have many ideas about what it means to be Baptist, by God's grace we aim to be a Bible- preaching, Gospel-driven, praying, evangelizing, disciple-making, gift-exercising, equipping, authentic, worshipping, missions-minded, and serving church. We believe that baptism is for those who repent of their sins and trust in Christ and that every local church has the responsibility to govern itself under the authority of Christ.
