From the Pastor's Desk:

Grace to you, and Peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!

Worth Considering:

“The effort to think like a Christian is . . . an effort to take seriously the sovereignty of God over the world he created, the lordship of Christ over the world he died to redeem, and the power of the Holy Spirit over the world he sustains each and every moment. From this perspective the search for a mind that truly thinks like a Christian takes on ultimate significance, because the search for a Christian mind is not, in the end, a search for the mind but a search for God.” —Mark Noll, The Scandal of the Evangelical Mind, p. 253

Covenant Presbyterian Church is Reformed in doctrine, which means we hold to the faith of the Protestant Reformation which is outlined in these five "Sola" Statements:

Sola Scriptura (Scripture Alone): We believe the Bible is the inerrant Word of God; the only standard of faith and practice. It alone shows us the way to be reconciled to God.

Solus Christus (Christ Alone): We believe our salvation is accomplished by the work of Jesus Christ alone. His sinless life and substitutionary death are the only means for our reconciliation with God.

Sola Gratia (Grace Alone): We believe God's grace alone provides salvation for mankind.

Sola Fide (Faith Alone): We believe the benefits of Jesus' work are appropriated only through faith.

Soli Deo Gloria (To God Alone the Glory): We believe God alone deserves the glory in our salvation and in our lives.
