Not sure what it means to be an evangelical? Find out what the word really means.

Evangelicals are passionate about God, about the church and about the Bible.

Evangelicals have decided to live their lives with Jesus – the Saviour of the world and Son of God – at the centre.

Evangelicals humbly and lovingly believe that the best thing for our families, friends, neighbours, nation and world is that they live their lives with Jesus too.

Evangelicals believe that God is with us and empowers us by His Spirit.

Evangelicals love the Bible. It bears witness to God’s revelation in Jesus Christ. It invites people into the story of God and the world. It guides how Christians live their lives and has so much to say about what it is to be human and how to do life together: with God and with each other.
