What We Believe (Statements of Faith)

We are a community that comes from the evangelical stream of Christianity. Our faith is based on what has been considered the foundation of life with God for centuries—not on a specific style, denomination, or culture, but on what flows from the Gospel and the Holy Scripture.

We identify with the main creed of the Church—the Nicene Creed, adopted in the 4th century. At the same time, we base our faith on principles derived from the biblical message, which were reaffirmed during the Reformation.

Sola Scriptura

Only the Holy Scripture is our highest authority in matters of faith and life.

Sola Fide

We receive salvation through faith, not by works.

Sola Gratia

All of this is a gift of God's grace, not the result of our merits.

We want to constantly verify all our beliefs, decisions, and actions in the light of God's Word. We are not guided by tradition—neither Catholic, nor Orthodox, nor Protestant—if it is not confirmed in Scripture. We want to be a community that lives out the Gospel in a fresh, authentic, and truth-based way.

What We Believe and What We Don't Believe

1. Relationship with God

We believe that every person is invited into a personal, deep relationship with God—not through intermediaries, but directly. Every believer can read and understand the Scripture for themselves, hear God's voice, discern their calling, and make decisions in obedience to the Holy Spirit.

We don't believe in a model of spirituality where only a few have access to spiritual knowledge, and the rest must rely on their revelations. We do not build dependence on the authority of "super-spiritual" individuals.

2. Leadership and Church Structure

We believe that healthy leadership involves shared decision-making, mutual trust, and serving one another. Leaders are there to support, not to manage. The structure of the Church should be flexible and adapted to the place, people, and time.

We don't believe that one person should be the center of the community. We do not want to build a church based on charisma, a stage, and personality. We do not create structures that limit God's work or block the growth of others.

3. The Supernatural and the Holy Spirit

We believe that God's work—healings, guidance, supernatural movements—is real, present, and needed. We want to be a church that expects more and is not content with dry Christianity.

We don't believe in "producing" spiritual experiences, pressure for results, or pretending when something isn't there. We don't want to create an atmosphere where people struggling with illness or pain have to pretend everything is fine.

4. Prayer

We believe that prayer is a real conversation with God that has an impact—both on us and on the world around us. We want to be a community that prays together regularly, with faith, but without rigid formulas.

We don't believe that prayer is a duty to be "checked off." We do not treat it as a religious formula, but as a living encounter with God.

5. Worship

We believe that worship is an encounter with God, not a musical performance. What matters is the content, presence, and heart, not the form or production. Simple forms—one piano, one guitar—can be sufficient if they lead us to God.

We don't believe that we need stage effects to worship. We are not concerned with looking professional—we are concerned with being authentic.

6. The Church as a Community of People, Not an Event

We believe that the Church is about relationships—daily, ordinary, deep. The most life and spiritual growth happen in home groups, in small gatherings, at the table, in conversation, in face-to-face prayer.

We don't believe that the Church is a stage and a Sunday program. We do not want to create a community that impresses but does not know its people. We are not interested in the Church as a show or a brand.

7. Ministry and Development of Gifts

We believe that every person has a unique role to play in God's plan. Our responsibility as a community is to help them discover it and create a space for them to grow and serve in it.

We don't believe that ministries are created just because "they have to be." We do not organize activities without people. We do not assign roles that no one feels called to. We do not do things that do not bear fruit.

8. Finances and Giving

We believe that giving flows from gratitude and the heart. We give because God has given us everything. We want to be generous, but without manipulation or imposed, rigid rules. New Testament giving is about freedom, not obligation.

We don't believe that one must give a tithe, a specific amount, or a percentage to be "right with God." We do not support teaching that links giving with fear or greed ("give to get more").

9. Unity of the Church

We believe that the Church is one family—beyond denominations, traditions, and differences. We want to bless others, pray for other communities, and build bridges, not walls.

We don't believe that we have the whole truth. We do not want to build an exclusive space where we look down on others. If something has been entrusted to us, it is to be shared with others.
