WHY WE EXIST
GO Church exists to build disciples who carry the hope of the cross to a hurting world.
OUR BELIEFS
We believe the Bible to be the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God. The Holy Spirit inspired the writers of the Old and New Testaments pointing to Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world.
We believe that there is One God, eternally revealed to the world in the Father, the Son, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. By Him were all things created.
We believe that God sent His Son, Jesus Christ to redeem all of mankind. Jesus Christ was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life on this earth, performed many undeniable miracles, was crucified for our sins, buried and was raised from the dead for our justification. By the name of Jesus Christ, and His name only, can mankind be saved. Jesus Christ sits at the Right Hand of the Father and will return personally in power and glory to receive His Church unto Himself.
We believe that mankind is sinful by nature and will perish without the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ as revealed in His Gospel. That God wishes that no one should perish, but that all would come to this saving knowledge through the preaching of the Gospel to a lost and hopeless world.
We believe that matrimony is a holy monogamous marriage between one man and one woman. This means that man and woman are two distinct genders willed by God their Creator in their respective beings, which reflect the image and nature of God.
We believe in the multi-faceted work of the Holy Spirit to bring conviction of sin, revelation of the truth of the Gospel of Christ, drawing of the sinner to God, adoption of mankind into the Body of Christ through regeneration, and the distribution and administration of the Gifts and Fruit of the Holy Spirit in the believer’s life. Jesus Christ is the “baptizer with the Holy Spirit” for the empowerment of the Church through the Baptism with the Holy Spirit.
We believe in the local church as a place where believers gather together for edification, teaching from the Word of God, and ministry to and through each other according to their spiritual gift. The local church provides identity to its members as well as encouragement, interdependence, fellowship, correction, and discipline.
CORE VALUES
WE ARE LIFE-GIVING. JOHN 10:10, 1 Corinthians 15:45
We have a core value to be life-giving and encouraging to people. We build people up, not tear them down. We faithfully share the life-giving message of Jesus’ death, burial and resurrection, in hopes that someone will hear and receive Him as their Savior.
WE ARE SERVANT HEARTED. JOHN 13
Jesus took up a towel and washed the disciple's feet showing us the greatest example of servant heartedness. We are called to be imitators of Jesus by preferring others above ourselves and by serving them. GO Church’s motto is this, “we take up a towel before we get a title.”
WE ARE EVANGELISTIC. MATTHEW 28:19, 20
We joyfully love to share the good news of the gospel and obey the great commission to “GO” make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit every time we are presented with an opportunity. We faithfully strive to teach people to obey everything Jesus taught in His Word.
WE ARE COMMUNITY ENGAGED. MATTHEW 9:36
We eagerly plan and look for the God given opportunities to engage, serve and love on the community in which we are planted. We “GO” out to meet people, serve them and invite them to come to one of our services.
WE ARE TEACHABLE. I CORINTHIANS 2: 13, 14
We have a core value to be humble and teachable. We purposefully posture ourselves before God with an attitude of humility, repentance and submission to God for everything. We eagerly desire to be led by His Holy Spirit and His Word in all things
WE ARE HONEST. TITUS 2:7
We strive to have integrity in our biblical teaching, our conduct and in our speech. We do not wear masks or pretend to be something we are not. Through Jesus’ power, we are the same every day of the week as we are on Sunday.
WE ARE ACCOUNTABLE. HEBREWS 4:13
IWe operate with the awareness that GO Church belongs to God, and nothing is hidden from him. We realize that we must give an account for everything we do. With that understanding, the leadership of GO Church has set up the proper biblical structure for church governance, sound biblical teaching, and proper finances. We use a third-party source to reconcile our books and provide further accountability. We also have denominational affiliates who provide more church accountability.
