10-Point Theological Scorecard

Christology

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

Faith and Message page adopts the 2000 BF&M — Trinitarian, Christ's full deity and humanity, virgin birth affirmed.

Strong

Scripture

Inerrancy affirmed? Final authority?

Faith and Message page explicitly affirms Scripture has 'truth, without any mixture of error, for its matter' — full inerrancy per BF&M 2000.

Strong

Men's Discipleship

Intentional formation for men?

No dedicated men's ministry surfaced in homepage ministries list (Children/Youth/Adult/Music/Missions).

Caution

Soteriology

Faith alone? How is salvation presented?

BF&M 2000 soteriology — salvation by grace through faith; substitutionary atonement.

Strong

Gender / Biblical Design

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

/faith-and-message page explicitly states 'the office of pastor is limited to men as qualified by Scripture' — complementarian confirmed.

Not stated on available sources — SBCV affiliation presumes complementarian; verify in person

Strong

Leadership Structure

Male elders/pastors? Accountability?

Leadership page referenced but not extracted; homepage references 'our pastor' generically without name.

Caution

Preaching Style

Expository or topical/therapeutic?

Not described on homepage.

Caution

Mission Clarity

Great Commission central?

Homepage emphasizes 'community renewal and spiritual transformation.'

Caution

Cultural Alignment

DEI/CRT language? Social justice crowding out gospel?

No DEI/CRT markers in homepage excerpt.

Caution

Accountability Structure

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

SBC-style BF&M 2000 adoption — strong conservative accountability. SBCV affiliation per record; homepage this pass did not re-cite SBCV by name.

Strong

Sources & Evidence

Enrichment Notes

Previously-unretrievable /faith-and-message page now yields concrete evidence: full BF&M 2000 adoption with explicit inerrancy language and male-only pastorate. Upgrades christology/scripture/soteriology/gender from yellow to green and the overall from yellow to green.

These are the URLs consulted to arrive at this church's scoring. Score-note claims are synthesized from homepage content, denominational directories, and public statements of faith at the time of review. Church websites change frequently; we're progressively adding Internet Archive snapshots to prevent link rot.
