About St Matthew's

WHAT WE BELIEVE

 

The heart of our shared life together is a trust in Jesus and a love for God’s word. We love to dig deep into the Bible and have it go deep into us, both on a Sunday and in Growth Groups. We want the solid foundations for faith that can only be found in the Scriptures. We want to know the grace of God, because we have come to see that is our only hope and our greatest need.

 

We believe that God is good, life is a gift and that relationships with God, with each other and with the created world are the most important thing in life. At St Matthew's we want to be a community who love God, who love people and who nurture each person's trust in God.

 

We believe God speaks today through the ancient writings in the Bible and that he works his purposes in our lives as we receive his message.

 

We think that 'church' is people - people who recognise that we aren't perfect, who share a desire to be changed by God and to serve him and the world he created.

WHAT IS CHRISTIANITY?

​

At the heart of Christianity is Jesus - who he is and what he's done for our world. Jesus is God's promised King, and God's Son. He came to bring the Kingdom of God by being rejected, killed, and rising from the dead.
​
Now, Jesus invites people to join his Kingdom by repenting and believing this good news.
