Love, Serve, Grow.
Three simple but significant ideas that help define what it means to be a follower of Jesus.
Generations Church is a fellowship of people who are committed to loving God, serving others, and growing in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ.
You do not have to be a member of Generations to attend or participate in almost all aspects of life at Generations Church, but we encourage everyone who is serious about serving Jesus and committed to our church body to take this important step. Applicants must be a devoted follower of Jesus Christ and have attended Generations Church for at least three months.
Generations Church is a Christian community that believes…
…the Bible is God’s flawless handbook that gives straight answers for life and spiritual belief.
…that God loves us unconditionally and invites us into relationship with him through faith in his Son, Jesus Christ.
….in Jesus Christ, God’s one and only Son who had a miraculous birth, lived a sinless life, died on the cross for our sins, was resurrected from the dead, ascended to heaven, and will return soon for those who believe in him.
….in the Holy Spirit, who lives in believers, empowering us to serve God.
…that spiritual gifts and the baptism of the Holy Spirit with speaking in other tongues are available and important for all believers.
…followers of Jesus should be baptized in water and celebrate the Lord’s Supper.
…followers of Jesus have an eternal destiny with God in heaven but those who have not accepted salvation will be separated from God forever.
