This Sunday, we launched our summer series, exploring five principles and practices that we value at Mars Hill. Every church has theological imperatives that it holds tightly (ours are outlined in our statement of faith). Additionally, every church also has theological distinctives that shape how it practices its beliefs and identity. We've traditionally referred to these as our three pillars, which serve as umbrella categories for all that we do.
Over the next five weeks, we'll examine Biblical Teaching, Gospel Community, Intentional Discipleship, and two other values that are sometimes overlooked: Gospel-Driven Missions and Biblical Worship. We last studied these as a church in 2018, so this series will be a helpful refresher and encouraging study for new and old.
This week, we're examining Biblical Teaching and our need to center and submit everything we do to the ultimate authority of God's word.
