RESOURCES
As a church, we value submitting to Scripture. The Bible is the ultimate authority by which we discern and determine everything we do and think. Therefore, we believe all that it teaches, seek to obey all that it requires, and trust all that it promises.
We have also experienced God’s work in our lives through other resources that align with Scripture and speak to specific challenges we face - either as individuals or as a church. We heartily recommend these books. The resources listed below can be found anywhere books are sold online. We don’t push you to one online retailer over another, so we suggest you put the title and author into your favorite book retailer or an online search engine to order a copy.
This is not and will never be an exhaustive list of books or topics. However, we anticipate continuing adding to this list in the future.
