Beliefs, Values, & History

Our Values

Eagle Brook exists to bring people into relationship with God through Jesus Christ, to draw them into a Christ-centered community, and to help them grow in their faith.

Follow Jesus

Following Jesus changes everything, and we'd love for everyone to experience that kind of life transformation. When you experience Jesus' mercy, grace, and love for yourself, it impacts every part of your life. As you choose to follow him each day and build a relationship with him, your life starts to look more like the example he set—and that naturally leads you to want the same for others!

Spend Time With God

The best way to continue growing in your faith is to spend regular time with God. That could mean growing your relationship with him through prayer, reading the Bible, spending time in worship—anything that deepens your connection and dependence on him. When you make space and time for God, he strengthens your faith, shapes your hearts, and gives you the wisdom and peace you need for whatever comes your way.

Serve Others

A core part of living like Jesus is serving. When you serve others, you take the focus off yourself and reflect God's heart by living out his greatest commandment: to love God and love others.

Connect In Community

You are wired for relationships—none of us are meant to do life alone. True community happens when you can show up as your authentic self and be known, loved, and challenged. It takes a safe space, vulnerability, and sacrifice, but it leads to deep connection and growth.

Live Generously

When you begin to understand how generous God has been with you, generosity becomes a natural response. It’s not about giving out of obligation—it’s about gratitude. Whether it’s your time, your talents, or your resources, you can live generously because God has given you so much.

Our Core Beliefs

Eagle Brook's core beliefs are the foundation of this church and are organized into three categories: beliefs about God; beliefs about people; and beliefs about the Church, the Bible, and Christ's return.

Beliefs About God

There is one living, sovereign God who eternally exists in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (Revelation 1:8; Isaiah 43:10-11; Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19)

Jesus was sent by the Father to live on earth; he was fully God and fully human, yet had no sin. Jesus willingly laid down his life and, after three days, rose from the grave. In doing this, Jesus fulfilled the payment for the world’s debt of sin. (Luke 1:31, 35; 1 Corinthians 15:3; 2 Corinthians 5:21)

The Holy Spirit was sent by the Father and Son to convict the world of sin and to empower all who believe in Jesus Christ. He lives in every believer and is a constant helper, teacher, and guide. (John 14:16-17)

Beliefs About People

God created people in his image, and everyone matters to God. (Genesis 1:26-27; Genesis 5:1-2)

All people are sinners and need God’s forgiveness. (Romans 3:23)

Those who confess and turn from their sin, trusting in Jesus Christ, will be saved by grace and become children of God, with the promise of eternal life. (John 3:16-17; Galatians 3:26)

Beliefs About The Church, The Bible, and Christ’s Return

Jesus Christ is the head of the church and all believing people are members. (Ephesians 4:15-16)

The Bible is the inspired Word of God and is the supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)

Jesus Christ will return and there will be a final judgment. (Matthew 24:3, 37)
