Our convictions about the nature of marriage are governed by the same biblical authority that informs all our teaching and ministry. We affirm that God intends Christian marriage to be between a professing, born again Christian man and a professing, born again Christian woman. Our beliefs can be summarized as follows:

God's intention for marriage is established throughout the scriptures of the Old and New Testaments.

God ordained marriage as a voluntary union for life of one man and one woman.

Sexual intimacy is legitimate only within the bounds of marriage.

Marriage is more than a contract between two persons: It is a covenant before God.

In Christian marriages, the Church acts as an agent of God's blessing, as a primary witness and as a supportive community.

A healthy marriage is the best foundation for families and the raising of children.
