Theological Convictions

I love theology and the study of God’s Word, and I am passionate about encouraging others to be faithful followers of Christ. I strive to stay rooted in the gospel, guided by the Word, and devoted to making disciples, allowing these convictions—shaped by my Baptist heritage—to direct both my life and my ministry. Out of this conviction, I affirm these key theological truths:

  • I believe in the greatness of God above all things.
  • I believe in the sufficiency of Scripture for all matters of faith and life.
  • I believe in the Lordship of Jesus Christ over all creation.
  • I believe in the power of the gospel to change lives.
  • I believe in the importance of the local church in expanding the Kingdom of God.
  • I believe in the imperative from Christ for His followers to go and fulfill the Great Commission.

Hopefully, our love for theological truth will stir our hearts to actively share the good news of Jesus Christ with a world that so desperately needs Him. As believers, we must be a people who believe the gospel, live out the gospel, and boldly share the Gospel!
