OUR BELIEFS & CORE VALUES

We believe in one God, who is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and the Savior of all who put their faith in Him alone for eternal life.

 

We believe that those who are made new in Christ are called to be holy in character and conduct and can only live this way by being filled with the Lord’s Spirit. We believe in the Bible and its sufficiency to establish our faith and conduct. We believe God wills for people everywhere to know Him and be made new in Christ. We believe that the purpose of the Church is to worship God in spirit and in truth, and to reach the disconnected and fallen world with the gospel of Jesus Christ through its worship, witness, and loving deeds.

NORTH POINT CHURCH'S  FOUR PURPOSES

A Disciple of Jesus gets to...

PURSUE GOD

God wants to know you personally, to have a relationship with you, more than just practicing religion. He invites you to pursue Him by grace through faith in Jesus. Our weekend services focus on pursuing God together. Whether you’re new to faith, have questions, or have been a follower of Jesus for a long time, our services are a safe place to explore your questions, kick the tires, and learn what it means to know God and grow closer to Him.

LOVE PEOPLE

We are all an important part of God’s plan, and our lives will never make sense until we discover our purpose. One of the most powerful tools that Jesus provides is our choice to love people. Choosing to love people - choosing to give people what they need and not what they deserve - is not only a powerful tool for transformation but also an amazing and fun way to partner with God. 

LIVE FREE

Jesus didn’t die and rise again just so we could avoid Hell. He came so that we would experience life in abundance. That is why God gave His church amazing healing tools to help us overcome the hurts, habits, or hang-ups that we've accumulated over time. We offer many different ministries to help you experience the freedom that Jesus wants for you.

LOVE PEOPLE

God’s ultimate plan for your life is to make a difference in the lives of others. When we do, the Bible tells us we will experience joy! Through serving on the Dream Team, we hope to connect every person to an opportunity to live out their calling by using their gifts and talents to serve others in the church and the community.

SPIRIT-LED FOCUS REQUIRES PRAYERFUL OBEDIENCE

We choose obedience over personal preference, with prayer as offense, not just defense. The Holy Spirit, not us, starts and leads the movement. Discerning and faithfully following the Spirit’s leading produces the transforming fruit God plans for us.

 

Zechariah 4:6, Matthew 7:7-8, John 15:5, Galatians 5:25, Ephesians 6:18-20, Colossians 4:2-4

GOD’S VISION REQUIRES BIG RELATIONSHIPS

Big relationships are built on love, collaboration and forgiveness. We choose trust over tension and mutual voluntary submission in our relationships to unite in pursuing God’s vision.

 

Mark 12:30-31, John 13:35, John 17:21, Galatians 5:22-23, Ephesians 3:20-21, Ephesians 4:2,15, 32, Ephesians 5:21, Philippians 2:1-5

THE GOSPEL GAP REQUIRES A KINGDOM FORCE

There is a growing gap between the gospel and our culture. We must mobilize a multiethnic, multigenerational, and multi-economic Kingdom Force of disciples making disciples to close the gap.

Our Kingdom Force includes laity and clergy, women and men, from everywhere to everywhere.

 

Psalm 145:11-13, Matthew 6:9-13, Matthew 9:37-38, Matthew 28:18, Romans 1:16, Galatians 3:28, Ephesians 4:11-12, 1 Peter 2:5,  2 Peter 3:9, Revelation 7:9

WE ARE PART OF THE WESLEYAN CHURCH

BIBLICAL AUTHORITY

The Bible is God’s holy Word. It uniquely and infallibly reveals God’s plan for His people and how to live out that plan, individually and corporately. Beliefs, practices, priorities, and our mission are to be anchored in clear biblical teachings.

CHRISTLIKENESS

Jesus Christ is the defining feature of God’s will and relationship with all humankind. In Christ is found both newness of life and the highest and clearest example for godliness. People made new in Christ find Him to be the source of faith, hope, and love in both the inner life and in our outward actions engaging a world desperate for hope and life.

DISCIPLE-MAKING

Making disciples is a clear mandate from Christ. This requires a strong missional focus on evangelism and training in spiritual growth and holy living. Done effectively, this will produce and promote growth and health in and among the churches.

LOCAL CHURCH CENTERED

The denomination exists to help local congregations grow and multiply, be more healthy, and more authentically reflect God’s plan. Local churches are the most fundamental and strategic points of evangelism and discipleship. The challenge of the denomination is to keep finding the best ways to serve, strengthen, and multiply congregations.

SERVANT LEADERSHIP

Wesleyans respect leadership that is placed over them, while realizing that the authority and effectiveness of spiritual leadership is not primarily bestowed, but earned, and is characterized by a loving and willing heart of obedience that serves God and mankind gladly. Wesleyans desire to be leaders in serving.

UNITY IN DIVERSITY

There is intrinsic value in every person. Biblical unity becomes all the more important and beautiful in the light of the wide-ranging differences in personalities, cultures, races, languages, talents, and perspectives. Finding unity and mutual love in Christ eliminates devaluation and deprivation of life to one another.
