Providence Particulars

Biblical - applying the Scriptures to all of life

It is our conviction that the Bible is the only infallible authority for the people of God and is sufficient to equip us for everything that is worth doing in this life. We want to take the Scriptures and press them into every corner of our existence.

Reformed - affirming God’s sovereignty in everything

We joyously celebrate the wonder of the Doctrines of Grace. We welcome those who disagree, but we are convinced that the Shepherd chooses his sheep, provides a perfect salvation, and doesn’t lose any of us.

Confessional - agreeing in doctrine and practice

Providence Church fully subscribes to the 1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith. Our members are required to affirm the (broader) EFCA Statement of Faith, but our elders, deacons, and teaching ministries will be working from a confessional perspective.

Historical - appreciating Christian tradition

Rather than trying to reinvent the wheel, we have found it helpful to consider Christian voices from the past. We sing old hymns, read the Puritans, Reformers, and Church Fathers because we have a long family history that we want to remember.

Disciple-Making - advancing the Great Commission

We have our marching orders from our King, so we should stay busy doing what he told us to do as he builds his Church (Matthew 28:18-20). We believe that discipleship is a relational and intentional process by which people are engaged with the gospel and called to follow Christ in every part of their lives.
