Are you are a virtual church?
Not really. We interact digitally in different ways, such as SMS, social media, and this website. Sometimes if someone is missing they might call or "Zoom" in but we do not typically live-stream our regular events. Technology has its place but there really is no substitute for in-person interactions to enable a rich sense of koinonia to develop. If you are not in Fresno, California area and you are looking for a spiritual home we encourage you to seek out believers in your area. That said, there is a special connection between believers around the world and we would love to hear from you. We can serve you by praying for you.
Thanks for your interest. Our website is a continual work in progress. If you have questions not covered by what you find published here then please reach out through the contact form.
Foundational Beliefs
We have a commission
Matthew 28:19 records Jesus' exhortation to share His good news to others. We desire to do this in word and deed.
We are saved by grace
Ephesians 2:8–10 makes it clear that our salvation is a gift from God, not achievable by our own efforts. This grace should manifest itself in the way we live with and treat each other.
The Bible Is God's Word
The Bible is God's story from which we more fully understand His character and how we should live. We would do well to be like the Bereans (Acts 17:11) who were commended for diligently studying Scripture.
Jesus Is Lord
Scripture tells us that "every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord" Philippians 2:9-11 We make these confessions here and now and live according to their premise.
