STATEMENT OF FAITH
What We Believe
Our faith is firmly rooted in the truth of God's Word. These foundational biblical convictions guide our teaching, shape our ministry, and direct everything we do as a church.
Our Foundation
At Living Word Ministries, we believe the Bible is God's inspired and authoritative Word and the foundation for our faith and daily lives. We are committed to faithfully teaching Scripture, exalting Jesus Christ, and living out the Gospel through worship, discipleship, and service.
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness.
2 TIMOTHY 3:16–17
