OUR BELIEFS
-
The Bible is the inspired word of God and is therefore our authoritative and infallible guide in all things. It contains a record of God's heart for people since the beginning of time and can give life and freedom to everyone
2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:21
-
There is one God who always existed and always will. He exists in three equal persons: the Father; the Son, or Jesus; and the Holy Spirit (the Trinity). The Father sent the word. The Son is the word who became flesh (a man), and he has existed since before the beginning of time. The Holy Spirit is the "doer," doing the work of the Father and the Son.
John 16:28; John 1:14; John 1:1; John 1:18; Genesis 1:2; John 15:26
-
People are beings created by God and made in his image. When Adam (through the devil’s influence) did not obey God in the Garden of Eden, his disobedience caused Adam and all his offspring (all people) to be cursed. This is when disobedience and rebellion (also known as "sin") entered the world. Sin causes us to be separated from God. Jesus came to bring us back into relationship with God and destroy the devil’s influence. He did this through his death, burial, and resurrection (being raised from the dead).
Genesis 3; John 10:10; Colossians 1:21-23; 1 John 3:8
-
The mobilized church is the hope of the world! The Bible is clear on the importance of gathering as the church, “not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching”. We believe that governments, businesses, and social organizations all have an important role, but only the church has God’s power and mission to bring redemption and freedom to the world. For this reason, the church is essential and our doors will always remain open.
Hebrews 10:25
-
God loves you so much that He gave His one and only Son, Jesus Christ, to die for your sins. The Bible tells us that God is both perfectly loving and perfectly holy. Because He is just, He cannot overlook our sin. Yet because of His great love, He took the punishment we deserved through Jesus’ death on the cross and His resurrection from the dead.
Salvation is a free gift of God’s grace, received through faith. When we confess that Jesus is Lord and believe that God raised Him from the dead, we are forgiven, made new, and welcomed into God’s family.
But God’s plan doesn’t end with saving us—it begins there. He desires a personal relationship with us, transforming us from the inside out to become more like Jesus. As we grow in Him, He also invites us to join His mission of making disciples and sharing His love with the world. Every follower of Jesus is called not only to know Him, but also to make Him known.
“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations…” — Matthew 28:19
John 3:16 • Romans 10:9–10
OUR VALUES
-
Jesus is not simply part of our lives—He is the center of them. We believe real life begins by knowing Him, following Him, and becoming more like Him. Everything we do flows from a relationship with Christ.
“For to me, to live is Christ…” — Philippians 1:21
-
Following Jesus was never meant to be done alone. We share life together through worship, Scripture, prayer, meals, and authentic friendships because we believe God uses community to shape us into the people He created us to be.
“And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works…” — Hebrews 10:24–25
-
Purdue isn’t just our campus—it’s our mission field. We believe every follower of Jesus is sent to love others, share the gospel, and make disciples wherever God has placed them. College isn’t a pause before God’s mission; it’s one of the greatest opportunities to live it.
“As the Father has sent me, even so I am sending you.” — John 20:21
-
Our goal isn’t simply to create church attenders—we want to raise up disciple-makers. Through mentoring, leadership development, and serving together, we equip ordinary students to become lifelong followers of Jesus who invest in others and help build God’s Kingdom.
“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations…” — Matthew 28:19
-
A Purdue degree can prepare you for a career, but only Jesus can prepare you for a life of eternal significance. We want to help students discover God’s calling and live for what will last long after graduation.
“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth… but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven.” — Matthew 6:19–20
