We want to have gatherings that are centered on Jesus, God's Kingdom and the presence of the Holy Spirit. We believe this should be the goal of every gathering, every Sunday service, every Life Group and every relationship!
Our church believes the way we can have life-giving relationships whether with God or people is to first connect with them. Find people who share your passions, goals, and your desires through life groups. We serve one another through using the God-given gifts and acts of service to share and grow in relationship with each other and Jesus.
Our Sunday morning Celebration Services are carefully planned, but we allow for the Holy Spirit to have freedom to move in our times of worship, prayer, and community.

- We are Jesus-centered. We believe eternal life is only received because of the sacrificial death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. We are saved through faith alone and because of that faith we are forgiven and saved. We believe it is essential for believers to share the Good News of the Gospel with others.
- We believe in the rich traditions of orthodox Christianity. We recite the Lord's Prayer, believe and recite the Apostle's Creed, and share traditional communion each Sunday.
- We believe and teach the Bible in its entirety. It is the basis for everything we do and we put it into practice in our everyday lives.
- We are empowered by the Holy Spirit. We live expectantly, inviting the Spirit of God to be a part of all we do. We expect to see spiritual breakthroughs through a dynamic relationship with God as He steps into our everyday lives. We expect the supernatural leading of the Holy Spirit to direct us and we allow Him to change our plans through flexible worship services.
- We are socially engaged. We believe we are called to be "salt and light" to our community through good works to help the needy, feed the poor, and defend the weak. We work with organizations already in place such as government, schools, shelters, and an outreach to the marginalized in Muscatine. We want to bring Jesus to those in need outside the walls of our church.
- We are missional. We believe we need to be intentional about our work in our community. We don't act out on our own vision, but rather through prayer following the Holy Spirit's leading, even when the going gets tough, we can accomplish the tasks set before us by God. We believe leadership is not management, but rather showing by example what it means to allow God to transform us into a work His creation.
- We believe in excellence. We take ownership and responsibility for our own lives and spiritual growth. We believe in self-care and allow God to mold us into people who proudly reflect who He is through us. We are creative people.
- We believe strong churches are made from strong families.
