FAQ
What denomination are you?
We are an
independent church. This means we do not belong to a larger denomination. Though every denomination has some truth, none of
them are 100% correct. We like being free to take those things each
group gets right and leave the things that don't line up with the Bible.
Statement of Faith
Who is the Pastor?
Our pastor is Bro Jon Tracy. He apprenticed for two years with our founding pastor, Bro John Wiltse, before taking the pastorate.
What Bible Translation do you use?
We mostly use the King
James and New Living Translation. The KJV is what most of us have been raised with and we are most
familiar with, but lately we have been enjoying the more modern English of the NLT. We do refer to other translations on occasion to help
our understanding of a scripture though.Do you have a dress code?
We believe boys
should look like boys and girls should look like girls and important
body parts should be covered (including the entire bottom), but
otherwise, no. We don't care what you look like.
Do I have to stay for lunch Sunday?
No. We would enjoy your company, but we understand that people have other plans sometimes.Do I have to bring something if I do want to eat?
Not at all.
This is a time for those who like to cook to experiment on, ummm, Treat the
rest of us. We always have more than enough left over.Can I come late?
We try to start
all services on time, but we won't lock the door to keep you out. We
look forward to seeing you whenever you can make it.
Service Times
Do I have to agree with you on everything in order to attend?
I have yet to meet any two people who agree on everything. And if we did, one of us wouldn't be necessary, would we? The important thing is that we all love the Lord and honor His Word. What is "Family Integrated?"
We do not segregate people according to their age. The whole family worships
together. Parents know what their children have been taught and children
see the example of their parent's worshiping. The family is strengthened
when the responsibility for teaching the children is put with the
parents where God originally intended.But I don't know that much about God. How am I supposed to teach my own children?
You can teach
them what you do know and learn the rest together. We recommend daily
family devotionals: a time to read the Bible and pray together. There
are many good resources out there to help you and we are always willing
to help, too.Do you offer special studies?
If asked, our
pastor or one of the elders will gladly teach on whatever subject you would like.
Am I going to hell?
The Bible says
that if you do not have Jesus as your Lord and Savior (Boss), yes, you will
spend eternity in eternal death. However, God loved YOU so much that He
robed Himself in flesh and willingly suffered the most painful method of
execution ever invented by humans in order to pay your way to Heaven.
All you have to do is accept Him into your heart.
