What is Living Faith in Jesus Christ?

The church led by Pastor Andy is a non-denominational community, welcoming individuals from diverse backgrounds and beliefs. Rooted in the teachings of Christianity, it emphasizes a personal relationship with God and a commitment to spiritual growth. One distinctive aspect of the church is its democratic voting element, as outlined in its articles of incorporation. This means that decisions within the church are made collectively through a voting process, allowing members to have a voice in matters such as leadership appointments, financial matters, and other significant decisions. This democratic approach fosters transparency, inclusivity, and a sense of ownership among the congregation, empowering everyone to contribute to the church's mission and direction.

What does Living Faith in Jesus Christ Believe?

Living Faith in Jesus Christ believes in the Holy Trinity as foundational to Christian faith, acknowledging God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Salvation is understood as a central tenet, achieved through faith in Jesus Christ and His sacrificial love for humanity. There is an emphasis on cultivating a deep love for Christ and the Trinity, guiding individuals towards spiritual growth and transformation. Additionally, our beliefs include recognition of spiritual warfare, where individuals are encouraged to choose the Trinity over worldly influences, the snares of the flesh, and the snares of Satan. By aligning with God's truth and power, your church community seeks to overcome spiritual challenges and live in accordance with divine principles.
