What We Believe
In a rapidly changing world, where values and norms often shift, our beliefs remain anchored in scripture, providing a timeless foundation for guidance and understanding.
We believe in one God, creator of all things, infinitely perfect and externally existing in three persons. Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
We believe Jesus Christ is true God and true man. Jesus lived a sinless life, died on the cross as sacrifice for our sins, arose bodily from the grave and ascended to heaven where He is our Advocate.
We believe the ministry of the Holy Spirit is to convict people of sin, regenerate the believing sinner, indwell, instruct, and empower the believer for Godly living and service.
We believe the Bible is the inspired word of God, without error in the original writings, and is the final authority for all Christians.
We believe in God’s saving grace that calls people to faith, repentance, confession, baptism, and a new life and ministry through the Holy Spirit.
We believe in the bodily resurrection of all humankind: the believer in Christ into everlasting joy, and the unbeliever into everlasting punishment.
Our Mission
We exist to connect people in the Columbus area to Jesus Christ by communicating Biblical truth in a way that brings faith to life.
We do this by communicating God’s Word in a way you can understand it and apply it to everyday life.
We demonstrate our faith as disciples (students of Jesus) by submitting to His will as expressed in scripture and committing to His mission to seek and save the lost.
Next Steps
At Connection, we are always striving to take the next step in faith. We believe that true growth comes from being fully submitted to His will and committed to His mission. We open our hearts to new opportunities and challenges, ready to serve and impact the lives around us. With each step, we deepen our reliance on His strength, knowing that our path is illuminated by faith and driven by love.
We see Connect as the first step. We strive to connect people with God, His Word, and His people, calling us into meaningful communion with others. Whether attending church online, joining us for the 9am or 10:30am Sunday service, or exploring our website, these initial actions help create important connections. We believe it’s in these moments foundations are being laid.
The next step of Grow invites you to stretch your understanding and deepen your faith. Our desire is for each person to grow deeper in their knowledge of God’s Word to draw closer to God. We feel it’s important to get plugged into a grow group, to do life in community with like-minded people. This step may also lead you to the waters of baptism or encourage you to embark on your giving journey, both powerful ways to express your commitment and experience growth in your faith. Embracing these opportunities helps us become more rooted in our beliefs and more engaged in our mission.
This next step, Serve, calls for the action of being the hands and feet of Jesus. This step calls us out of self and into a life of connection and purpose. Think back to those you engaged with in your first steps. It invites us to look beyond our own needs and desires, engaging with others in meaningful ways. By stepping into service, we embrace the opportunity to uplift those around us, share our gifts, and create a positive impact in our church and community as to shine the light of Christ
Share invites you to boldly proclaim your story and God’s story. Are you ready to share how your life has been transformed? This step is all about declaring, “I was _____, but now, with Jesus, I’m _____.” It’s an opportunity to invite others to church and to step up and out into ministry. Whether you’re sharing your journey or leading others, this is a powerful call to spread the message of hope and transformation that comes from knowing Christ. Embrace this chance to impact lives and deepen your faith by sharing the incredible love of Jesus.
