We believe in the total depravity of man. We believe in the incarnation, deity, vicarious atonement, resurrection, and imminent coming again of our Lord Jesus. We believe that salvation is the gift of God, received by personal faith in Jesus Christ as Lord. We believe that God has called all believers to a life of holiness. We believe that the command of Jesus Christ to preach the Gospel to every person is still each believer’s responsibility. Core Values: We are committed to hold the Word of God central in all that we do. We are committed to creating environments that lead to decision making encounters with the God of the universe. We are committed to instilling family values, a sense of belonging, and emotional security. We are committed to training our staff in biblical knowledge, ministry advancement, leadership, and practical life knowledge. We are committed to ministering the grace and hope of our Lord Jesus Christ to everyone who we come in contact with. We are committed to reaching every child possible, regardless of race, creed, financial situation, social status, etc… Disclaimer and Agreement I certify that I have read the above statements and am in agreement with them and will do my best to uphold them and honor the Lord with my service if I am blessed with the opportunity to serve at Bliss Summit this summer.
