We Value>>
Community
We strive to be aware of the pulse of our community and play an active role in serving in it. Our desire is to build genuine relationships with people in our community. Phillippians 2:1-8
Relationships
We believe that loving relationships should permeate every aspect of church life. This includes the concepts of love-driven ministry, ministry accomplished in teams, and relationship building. 1 Cor. 13
Small Groups
We believe that growth that is life changing happens best in small groups. This includes the concepts of discipleship, vulnerability and accountability. Acts 2:44-47
Family
Solid marraiges build solid families and strong communities. Kids need to be loved and valued. Children need a safe place at church with mature Christians serving them so they can learn about Jesus and commit their life to him. Deut. 6:5-6
Releasing Leaders
We desire to be a church where people can develop, use their gifts and talents through internships, focused training and development to serve others in our church and community. Waypoint is also committed to starting new churches. Eph 4:11-13
Excellence
In everything we do we are committed to giving our best effort. We will take advantage of every resource to communicate the truth of God's love for mankind
Col. 3:23
Authentic Relationships With Jesus
Christ's invitation was to follow Him. We want to invite people to follow Christ and help people develop a relationship with Him. We do this through prayer, worship and studying God's word, the Bible. John 3:16
We Believe>>
The Bible is the inspired word of God and is without error in it's original form. It is our guide for faith and practice. 2 Tim 3:16-17
God is eternal and exists in three equal persons, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. God created the world and everything in it. He continues to sustain His creation and He is operating throughout history to fulfill His purpose for mankind. 1 John 5:7, Gen 1-2
Jesus Christis the only Son of God, the image of God. He is God, and is the only Savior of the world. We can have eternal life because of His death on the cross and literal, physical resurrection from the dead. We believe the second coming of Christ will be personal and iminent. 1 John 5:11-12, 1 Thess 4:16-17
Eternal Destiny-The Bible says if you give your life to Christ and ask Him for forgiveness of your sins then you will go to heaven and have eternal life. By doing this you are making a commitment to live for Christ. Without Jesus as Savior in a person's life a person would live in hell eternally after physical death. Rom. 10:9, John 3:16, 1 John 1:9, Gal. 2:20, John14:1-3, Rev. 20:10 & 15.
The Holy Spirit is sent by God to help the Christian live for God in their daily lives. He gives the Christian gifts to build up and help people. Eph 4:30-32, Acts 2:4, Gal 5:22
Baptism and Communion-we believe that baptism by immersion is an outward sign of an inward work. We also believe in remembering the Lord's Supper by the symbolic use of the bread and juice. Matt. 28:19, 1 Cor. 11:24-25
Church-Every Christian should be part of a church for spiritual growth, worship, fellowship and sharing the message of Christ. The Christian should support their church financially through tithes and offerings to help spread His message. Acts 16:5, Heb. 10:25
Sharing Our Faith- Jesus' final words to His followers included a commission to "go and make disciples of all nations." That call to share about Jesus to the world begins with our family friends, neigbors and the world. Matt. 28:19-20
