Our message is Jesus Christ, crucified and raised from the dead! We seek to anchor everything in the Person and work of the Messiah, the Son of God. To proclaim Christ is to draw attention to Him, His perfect life and character, His compassionate and authenticating miracles, His sacrificial, atoning death and His victorious resurrection. To proclaim Christ is to point people not to the preacher, nor the church, nor a system of rules, but to a relationship with Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
