Our core values drive the heart of the church as a whole and lay a path for every individual of any age to grow in their relationship with God and others.
Healthy followers of Christ develop regular habits that help them to be Just. Like. Him.
We teach how to read the Bible and pray the same way we eat: daily. We come together as a family and support each other with Wednesday night connection. We baptize in water the same way Jesus was and we pray for the baptism of the Holy Spirit just as the disciple were baptized.
We seek to build life-giving authentic friendships, families, and communities that glorify God. New Hope gathers together in our membership to the body, small groups, and volunteering here on campus and in the city of Muskogee.
We actively seek to draw people to God by reaching our city and our world through simple acts of kindness. Jesus said that "we will be known as His disciples by the way we love one another." We seek to show grace to every individual through relational evangelism, draw in the community by serving locally, and reach the globe by supporting missionaries here and abroad.
Worship is more than simply coming together to praise God on Sundays; it's a lifestyle of the fruit of the spirit and how we interact with God in our daily lives. Sunday Services, small groups, and generosity are just a few of the ways that we worship the Lord.
There is one eternally existing God who has three distinct persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. He is the creator of all that exists, both visible and invisible, and is therefore worthy of all glory and praise. God is perfect in love, power, holiness, goodness, knowledge, wisdom, justice, and mercy. He is unchangeable and therefore is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
Jesus Christ came to reconcile us with God. He lived a life without sin and willingly died on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins. God raised him from the dead and now, by grace, offers as a free gift eternal life to all who follow Christ, by faith, as their Lord and Savior. That is why salvation can be found in Christ alone.
Jesus Christ is returning one day to judge both the living and the dead and to usher in the fullness of God's kingdom on earth.
