Our Faith
Everyone has a prism of beliefs and values through which they understand the world and try to make sense of their lives. For us, our understanding is rooted in the story of the God of Israel and the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ - the Christian Faith. When we use the term 'faith' we do not mean it simply in terms of hoping, or believing things we cannot prove, but in the sense of 'trust' - the same way we might speak of having faith in our friends and loved ones. Our Christian Faith provides us with a compass for navigating the complexity of human life and a key to answering the great questions of existence.
