10-Point Theological Scorecard

Christology

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

Nicene Creed explicitly affirmed as 'the sufficient statement of the Christian faith.'

Strong

Scripture

Inerrancy affirmed? Final authority?

Anglican formularies framework implied — evangelical, apostolic, catholic, reformed, Spirit-filled.

Strong

Men's Discipleship

Intentional formation for men?

Not surfaced.

Caution

Soteriology

Faith alone? How is salvation presented?

Anglican-evangelical via Nicene Creed; not detailed beyond that.

Caution

Gender / Biblical Design

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

Only one ordained clergy listed — Fr. Rob Patterson (male, Rector). Women on staff (Liz Bucko, Julie Patterson) hold lay ministry-director roles (Small Groups Pastor, Children's Ministry Director), not priestly orders. ACNA permits lay-titled 'pastor' roles.

Verify

Strong

Leadership Structure

Male elders/pastors? Accountability?

Fr. Rob Patterson serves as Rector and head of Vestry — single ordained male presbyter with vestry oversight, standard ACNA polity.

Strong

Preaching Style

Expository or topical/therapeutic?

Not described.

Caution

Mission Clarity

Great Commission central?

Sanctuary-of-Renewal language; gospel framing implied.

Caution

Cultural Alignment

DEI/CRT language? Social justice crowding out gospel?

ACNA churches in VA are typically conservative; specific cultural-issue stances not on /beliefs-tradition.

Caution

Accountability Structure

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

ACNA confirmed via /beliefs-tradition page.

Strong
