We seek to honor God in a worship service without a lot of glitz or showmanship, but just simple and traditional worship that includes singing, testimony on occasion, and Bible-focused preaching. We hope to take that worship with us every day as we honor God in our jobs, at school, in the community, and wherever we live.

We try to grow in his word. In John 1 we learn that the living “word of God” is actually Jesus. It also refers to the Bible. We want to grow more like Jesus as we study and apply God’s word. Second, it means that we want to not only grow more like Christ, but we want our community to grow larger as more people become disciples in our church.

Finally, we love other people the way Jesus loved us. That means self-sacrificial, others-focused, and Christ-like caring and fellowship. We love people outside our church by supporting things like the Morganton Outreach Center, Burke United Christian Ministries, the Pregnancy Care Center and other causes. When people are hurting we at least pray for them and often also give to them. And we also support our members and people in our community as they have spiritual, emotional, and physical needs.
