What We Believe

What We Believe Shapes Everything We Do

We are a Bible based, Spirit led, Christ centered Church committed to love, active faith, and continual growth. We believe this growth happens as we foster our relationship with God and allow His Word and the Holy Spirit to shape every area of our lives. Our desire at VBF is to help people develop a vibrant and living relationship with Jesus. We believe the Bible is the foundation for how we live, the Holy Spirit leads and empowers us, and Jesus remains at the center of everything we do. We are committed to creating an environment where people can grow in their knowledge of God, build meaningful relationships, and experience genuine Christian community. We believe faith is meant to be lived out through loving people, serving others, and putting what we believe into action.
Just as the early Church in the book of Acts reached beyond its walls and impacted the world through the love and presence of God, we believe the Church is called to do the same today. Our methods may not always look traditional, but our foundation remains unchanged. We want to be a Church that knows Jesus, follows the leading of the Holy Spirit, lives out the truth of Scripture, and continually grows in our relationship with God and one another.

Baptism

Faith You Can Actually Live Out

Baptism is a public declaration of your faith in Jesus and an outward expression of the change He has made in your life. Baptism does not save us. We are saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. Baptism is a celebration of what God has already done in us and a step of obedience as we follow Him.

Jesus Himself was baptized, and as His followers, we want to follow in His steps.

“As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water.”
Matthew 3:16

At VBF, baptism is one of the most meaningful and joyful steps you can take in your walk with Jesus. If you have made the decision to follow Christ and have not yet been baptized, we would love to celebrate this moment with you.

Why We Exist
