What We Believe

Dwell Church is a Southern Baptist church plant, fully affirming the Baptist Faith and Message 2000. Here’s a summary of what we believe:

The Bible — The Bible is the inspired, inerrant, and sufficient Word of God — the final authority for faith and practice.

God — There is one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Jesus Christ — Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man — born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died on the cross as the atoning sacrifice for sin, rose bodily from the dead, and will return in glory.

Salvation — Salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. It cannot be earned or maintained by human effort.

The Church — The local church is the primary community through which God advances His mission in the world. Believer’s baptism by immersion is an ordinance of the local church.

The Great Commission — Every follower of Jesus is called to make disciples of all nations. This is not optional — it is the defining mission of the Church.

Last Things — We believe in the bodily resurrection of all people, the final judgment, and the eternal reign of God with His redeemed people.
