What We Believe

Covenant United Methodist Church believes that it should be at the forefront of leading people in a spritual transformation that reflects the life of Christ for the greater transformation of the world.

As a United Methodist congregation, Covenant United Methodist Church follows the principles of The Book of Discipline of the United Methodist Church.

Taken from The Book of Discipline:

United Methodists profess the historic Christian faith in God incarnate in Jesus Christ for our salvation and ever at work in human history in the Holy Spirit. Living in a covenant of grace under the Lordship of Jesus Chrust, we participate in the first fruits of God's coming reign and pracy in hope for its full realization on earth as in heaven.

Our heritage in doctrine and our present theological task focus upon a renewed grasp of the sovereignty of God and of God's love in Christ amid the continuing crises of human existence. Our forebears in the faith reaffirmed the ancient Christian message as found in the apostolic witness even as they applied it anew in their own circumstances. Their preaching and teaching were grounded in Scripture, informed by Christian tradition, enlivened in experience, and tested by reason. Their labors insprire and inform our attempts to convey the saving gospel to our worlkd with its needs and aspirations.
