Top Highlights

“We have committed ourselves to invigorating churches with new hope and compelling joy based on the promises received by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone.” (source)

“We intend to do this through the ordinary means of his grace: prayer, the ministry of the Word, baptism and the Lord’s supper, and the fellowship of the saints.” (source)

“the gospel appears as creation, fall, redemption, restoration.” (source)

“The core dynamic of gospel-centered ministry is therefore worship and fervent prayer” (source)

“We believe that a zeal for personal and public obedience flows from this free justification” (source)

In a time of endless fragmentation, it is easy to sound prophetic from the margins, but one of the most urgent needs of any generation is to be prophetic from the center—from what the Bible makes the center. We want to be robustly biblical, richly theological, constantly elevating what God himself in His own Word makes central.
