We are committed to...

We are committed to making more wholehearted followers of Jesus beginning in South Dakota and continuing to do so around the world. As we passionately love God, we desire others to experience the transformational presence of God as well.

We have been called to create healthy churches that transform their communities through multiplying converts, disciples, leaders and congregations who passionately love God and sacrificially love others.

We believe in the fundamental doctrines of the evangelical Protestant church. We believe in the Scripture, the entire Bible, Old and New Testaments, as the inspired, infallible Word of God.

We believe that God is eternally existent in three separate persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe that God the Father is the personal, transcendent, and sovereign creator of all things.

We believe that Jesus Christ is fully God and fully human, that He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, provided for the atonement of our sins by His death on the Cross, was bodily resurrected by the power of the Holy Spirit, ascended back to the right hand of God the Father, and ever lives to make intercession for us.

After He ascended to Heaven, Jesus poured out His Holy Spirit on the believers in Jerusalem, enabling them to fulfill His command to preach the Gospel to the entire world, an obligation shared by all believers today.

We believe that all people are by nature separated from God and responsible for their own sin, but that salvation, redemption, and forgiveness of sin are freely offered to all by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. When a person repents of sin and accepts Jesus Christ as personal Savior and Lord, trusting Him to save, that person is immediately born again, their spirit is immediately regenerated by the Holy Spirit, and all his/her sins are forgiven, and that person becomes a Child of God, destined to spend eternity with the Lord.
