Our identity
We are Christians
We are people who believe that everything, (life, death and the universe!) revolves around Jesus Christ. We believe in Jesus Christ, in the sense of personally trusting Him as the one true ruler and rescuer of mankind. The Bible helpfully summarises Christian belief as saying, ‘Jesus Christ is Lord.’ Christians are thoroughly committed to who Jesus is, what he came to do and what it means to follow Him and they’re concerned for that in their own lives as well as those around them.
We are evangelical Christians
The adjective ‘evangelical’ has lots of bad press nowadays. It simply refers to those who believe that the Bible takes absolute first place in deciding all matters of belief and behaviour. As you’ll notice if you come along, the Bible therefore takes centre stage in all our main Sunday meetings. Many people make fun of the Bible, but as evangelical Christians, we take it seriously.
We are Anglican, evangelical Christians
We are part of the Church of England (Anglican) and within the diocese of Winchester. We hold to the Reformation teachings contained in the Anglican 39 Articles of Religion and The Book of Common Prayer.
