We invite a variety of Christian guests from different denominations and perspectives to discuss theology, church history and the Gifts of the Spirit on the show. While we acknowledge each as Christian brothers and sisters, we also want to communicate our statement of beliefs.
WE BELIEVE IN THE BIBLE
We believe that God has perfectly revealed who he is and what he commands in the Bible.
WE BELIEVE IN JESUS
We believe that Jesus is fully God and fully man. Through his life, death, and resurrection, he did all that was necessary to make salvation possible.
WE BELIEVE IN THE GOSPEL
The gospel is the good news that God saves sinners through Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection.
WE BELIEVE IN ORIGINAL SIN
We believe that, through Adam, sin has broken all humanity and creation, leaving the world in need of salvation.
WE BELIEVE SATAN EXISTS
We believe Satan hates God’s church and is determined to crush it. Satan was defeated at the cross even as we wait for his final judgment.
WE BELIEVE IN MARRIAGE
We believe the pattern for sex and marriage was established by God as he officiated Adam and Eve’s male-female union in Eden.
WE BELIEVE IN THE IMAGE OF GOD
We believe that all humans are equal in dignity and value, bearing the image of God from the moment of conception, regardless of ethnicity or gender.
WE BELIEVE IN JESUS'S RETURN
We believe that Jesus will return to both restore creation and judge the living and the dead.
WE BELIEVE IN THE TRINITY
We believe that God is a complex unity. There is only one true God, but he exists eternally as three persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
WE BELIEVE IN THE HOLY SPIRIT
We believe that the Holy Spirit is fully God. Through his ministry, he points us to Jesus and empowers our lives.
WE BELIEVE IN SPIRITUAL GIFTS
We believe that the Holy Spirit continues to give Jesus’ followers all spiritual gifts to encourage believers and save those who do not yet believe.
WE BELIEVE IN SALVATION BY GRACE
We believe that salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone.
WE BELIEVE IN THE CHURCH
We believe the Church is Jesus’ body on the earth. Her mission is to make Jesus known through preaching the gospel, caring for the poor, and serving our neighbors.
WE BELIEVE IN COMPLEMENTARIANISM
We believe that men and women are equals, created by God to fulfill different roles as coworkers in his kingdom.
WE BELIEVE IN HEAVEN & HELL
We believe that followers of Jesus will spend eternity with Jesus in his kingdom. Everyone who rejects Jesus will be punished with eternal separation from the presence of God.
WE BELIEVE IN THE FIVE SOLAS
These five statements of the Protestant Reformation lay at the center of what distinguished the theology of Protestantism from the theology of the Roman Catholic church in the 16th century. Sola Scriptura holds that Scripture is the only inerrant, sufficient, and final authority for the church because it is God’s inspired Word. Solus Christus holds that Christ alone is the basis on which the ungodly are justified before God. Sola Fide holds that only through faith can a believer receive the redemption Christ accomplished for them. Sola Gratia holds that our salvation comes from grace alone, from beginning to end. Because of these things, the Reformers held to the final Sola, Soli Deo Gloria, that only God receives glory for our salvation.
