Our Beliefs

"What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us."
- A.W. Tozer

Core Beliefs

At Eastside Church, we believe in the Bible as God's Word and that it is our source of authority for life and our beliefs.  We also strive to be a place without barriers and boundaries, a place that will love everyone and serve anyone, a place that comes alongside of each person whereever you are in your journey.

God

There is one God-the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

Bible

The Bible contains all the truth we need to succeed at work, at school, in our families, in our relationships, and anything else we encounter in life. It was written by human authors who were uniquely inspired by the Holy Spirit and is our source of truth and authority in life.

Humanity

Everyone is born with a natural inclination to sin and be separated from God. God loves each person he has created with an unfailing love. Through Jesus Christ He offers us freedom from everything that holds us back from having a life-changing relationship with Him and fulfilling our destiny.

Salvation

Whoever believes in Jesus Christ and seeks forgiveness of their sin will have eternal life and the freedom to enter into a life-changing relationship with God.

New Life

Effective life change begins when we follow Jesus Christ.

Destiny 

God gives each person gifts, abilities, and experiences that can be used to help others and fulfill their destiny.

Transformation

God empowers us to live a life that is becoming increasingly more like Jesus Christ.
