Theological Distinctives

As a member of Acts 29, we hold to the five theological distinctive of all network churches. Those are:

  • We are passionate about gospel centrality.
  • We enthusiastically embrace the sovereignty of God in saving sinners. 
  • We recognize and rest upon the empowering presence of the Holy Spirit for all of life and ministry. 
  • We are deeply committed to the spiritual and moral equality of males and females and to men as responsible servant-leaders in both home and church.
  • We embrace a missionary understanding of the local church and its role as the primary means by which God chooses to establish his kingdom on earth.
