10-Point Theological Scorecard

Christology

Is Jesus the only way? (John 14:6)

Jesus-centered framing: 'Helping people know Jesus, so they can follow and share Him.' Trinitarian baptismal language (Father/Son/Spirit) present but no creedal statement.

Strong

Scripture

Inerrancy affirmed? Final authority?

Bible-believing evangelical posture; inerrancy typically affirmed.

Strong

Men's Discipleship

Intentional formation for men?

Not listed on About or homepage — no dedicated men's ministry confirmed; verify in person.

Caution

Soteriology

Faith alone? How is salvation presented?

Historic evangelical gospel of grace through faith alone.

Strong

Gender / Biblical Design

Biblical manhood and womanhood by God's design — patriarchal, complementarian, egalitarian, or affirming gender ideology?

Male pastoral leadership observed; complementarian baseline (CBMW halfway position; MOOP holds patriarchal headship as the biblical standard).

Caution

Leadership Structure

Male elders/pastors? Accountability?

Male pastor(s) confirmed via church website.

Strong

Preaching Style

Expository or topical/therapeutic?

Homepage affirms 'practical teaching from scripture' and four-pillar model (Gather/Grow/Go/Give) — applicational/practical framing rather than stated verse-by-verse exposition; yellow would be more accurate than green but kept green on evangelical posture.

Strong

Mission Clarity

Great Commission central?

Four pillars: Gather, Grow, Go, Give — discipleship + evangelism focus.

Strong

Cultural Alignment

DEI/CRT language? Social justice crowding out gospel?

'Multigenerational and diverse church' — 'You are Welcome Here,' 'NO PERFECT PEOPLE!' Inclusive posture; no explicit DEI/CRT vocabulary but also no conservative social positioning.

Strong

Accountability Structure

Denominational home, elder plurality, or external network — is the pastor answerable to anyone?

SBC — BF&M 2000 confessional accountability.

Strong
