The church is not a theological classroom. It is a conversion, confession, repentance, reconciliation, forgiveness and sanctification center, where flawed people place their faith in Christ, gather to know and love him better, and learn to love others as he designed.

We must not offer people a system of redemption, a set of insights and principles. We offer people a Redeemer.

The Bible says that our core problem, the fundamental reason we do what we do, is sin.
