Why Hope?

Everybody needs HOPE.
Everybody needs COMMUNITY.
Everybody needs CHURCH.

From the beginning, Hope Community Church has existed for those people who aren’t even here yet. Our heart beats for individuals seeking the help only a dynamic community can provide. To meet those needs, we have a thriving family ministry, which addresses the issues and struggles people face. We’ve also learned how important it is to look beyond ourselves so we focus on local and global outreach.

That’s why we’re unique.
That’s why we’re Hope to so many. Come and visit us!

HOPE.

It’s not always easy to have hope these days. Life gets busy and overwhelming. We often feel like who we are or what we have is never enough. But that’s not what Jesus says—and Jesus is where our hope comes from.

COMMUNITY.

Our mission is to love people where they are and encourage them to grow in a relationship with Jesus. You don’t have to have your act together or your faith figured out to be a part of what God’s doing here. All are welcome to be a part of the Hope community.

CHURCH.

Church isn’t a building—it’s a community of people going out into everyday life and living out the Gospel in the places they live, learn, work and play.

What We Believe

God is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. He has eternally existed in three persons: The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. These three are equal and are one God. 

Genesis 1:1,26,27,3:22

Psalm 90:2

Matthew 28:19

1 Peter 1:2

2 Corinthians 13:14

Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is co-equal with the Father. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all people by dying on a cross. He rose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to Heaven’s glory and will return again someday to earth to reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

Matthew 1:22, 23

Isaiah 9:6

John 1-5, 14:10-30

Hebrews 4:14,15

1 Corinthians 15:3, 4

Romans 1:3, 4

Acts 1:9-11

1 Timothy 6:14, 15

Titus 2:13

The Holy Spirit is co-equal with the Father and the Son of God. He is present in the world to make men aware of their need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding spiritual truth and guidance in doing what is right. He gives every believer a spiritual gift when they are saved. As Christians, we seek to live under His control daily.

John 16:7-13, 14:16,17

Acts 1:8

1 Corinthians 2:12, 3:16

Ephesians 1:13

Galatians 5:25

Ephesians 5:18

The Bible is God’s word to us. It was written by human authors under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. Because it is inspired by God, it is the truth without any mixture of error.

2 Timothy 3:16

2 Peter 1:20, 21

2 Timothy 1:13

Psalm 119:105, 160, 12:6

Proverbs 30:5

People are made in the spiritual image of God, to be like Him in character. People are the supreme object of God’s creation. Although every person has tremendous potential for good, all of us are marred by an attitude of disobedience toward God called “sin.” This attitude separates people from God and causes many problems in life.

Genesis 1:27

Psalm 8:3-6

Isaiah 53:6a, 59:1,2

Romans 3:23

Salvation is God’s free gift to us but we must accept it. We can never make up for sin by self-improvement or good works. Only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God’s offer of forgiveness can anyone be saved from sin’s penalty. When we turn from our self-ruled life and turn to Jesus in faith, we are saved. Eternal life begins the moment one receives Jesus Christ into his life by faith.

Romans 5:1

Ephesians 2:8,9

John 14:6, 1:2

Titus 3:5

Galatians 3:26

Because God gives us eternal life through Jesus Christ, the true believer is secure in that salvation for eternity. If you have been genuinely saved, you cannot “lose” it. Salvation is maintained by the grace and power of God, not by the self-effort of the Christian. It is the grace and keeping power of God that gives us this security.

John 10:29

2 Timothy 1:12

Hebrews 7:25, 10:10, 14

1 Peter 1:3-5

People were created to exist forever. We will either exist eternally separated from God by sin, or eternally with God through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally separated from God is hell. To be eternally in union with Him is eternal life. Heaven and hell are real places for eternal existence.

John 3:16

Romans 6:23

Revelation 20:15

John 10:28
