Who We Are

Learn About Heritage Church

Since the year 2000, Heritage Church has been a place where people who are far from God can find their hope in Him. For years, we’ve had the motto of “no perfect people allowed”, because we are a community that meets people right where they’re at, no strings attached. Our Mission Statement is: to reach others for Christ, and train them to serve Him.

Our beliefs

Learn about what we believe at Heritage Church. If you have questions, reach out to us.

Beliefs About God

There is one living, sovereign God who eternally exists in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Revelation 1:8; Isaiah 45:10-11; Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19

Jesus was sent by the Father to live on earth. He was fully God and fully human, yet had no sin. Jesus willingly laid down His life, and after three days He rose from the grave. In doing this, Jesus fulfilled the payment for the world's debt of sin. Luke 1:31, 35; 2 Corinthians 5:21

The Holy Spirit was sent by the Father and Son to convict the world of sin and to empower all who believe in Jesus Christ to obey Him and serve others. He lives in every believer and is a constant helper, teacher, and guide. John 14:16-17

Beliefs About People

God created people in His image, and everyone matters to God. Genesis 1:26-27

All people are sinners and need God's forgiveness. Romans 3:23

Those who confess and turn from their sin, trusting in Jesus Christ, will be saved by grace and become children of God, with the promise of eternal life. John 3:16-17

Beliefs About the Bible, the Church, the Ordinances, and Christ's Return

The Bible is the inspired word of God and is the supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct. 2 Timothy 3:16-17

Jesus is the head of the Church and all believing people are members and need a local Church. Ephesians 4:15-16

Christ gave the Church two ordinances: Baptism and Communion. 1 Corinthians 11:23-29; Romans 6:4; Colossians 2:12

Jesus Christ will return and there will be a final judgment. Matthew 24:3, 37
