About Our Church

Mission: Obeying the Great Commandment in order to fulfill the Great Commission

"A Living Sacrifice to GodAnd so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him." -- Romans 12:1 NLT

We are so glad you stopped by. At Living Word, our heart is simple — to love God, love people, and share the life-changing power of Jesus Christ. Whether you have followed the Lord for many years or you are just beginning to ask questions about faith, you are welcome here. We believe church should feel like family, worship should be alive, and the Word of God should speak to real life. When you walk through our doors, our prayer is that you will experience God’s presence, genuine fellowship, and a message that strengthens your faith and encourages your heart. We look forward to meeting you and growing together in Christ. Pastor David and Louise

We Believe

• In the verbal inspiration of the Bible
• In one God eternally existing in three persons; namely, the Father, Son, And Holy Ghost.
• That Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of the Father, conceived of the Holy Ghost, and born of the Virgin Mary.
• That Jesus was crucified, buried, and raised from the dead.
• That He ascended to heaven and is today at the right hand of the Father as the intercessor.
• That all have sinned and come short of the glory of God and that repentance is commanded of God for all and necessary for forgiveness of sins.
• That justification, regeneration, and the new birth are wrought by faith in the blood of Jesus Christ.
• In sanctification subsequent to the new birth, through faith in the blood of Christ; through the Word, and by the Holy Ghost.
• Holiness to be God's standard of living for his people In the baptism with the Holy Ghost subsequent to a clean heart.
• In speaking with tongues as the Spirit gives utterance and that it is the initial evidence of the baptism of the Holy Ghost.
• In water baptism by immersion, and all who repent should be baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
• Divine healing is provided for all in the atonement.
• In the Lord's Supper.
• In the premillennial second coming of Jesus. First, to resurrect the righteous dead and to catch away the living saints to Him in the air. Second, to reign on the earth a thousand years.
• In the bodily resurrection; eternal life for the righteous, and eternal punishment for the wicked.
