Mission and Doctrine | Valley Bible Church

Statement of Mission

Strengthening the church gathered

to be the church scattered

for the glory of Christ.

Valley Bible Church exists to glorify God by committing our time, energy, and resources to the three dimensions of our mission:

TO ONE ANOTHER: “strengthening the church gathered” - We seek to preach, teach, and equip the gathered church to build one another up in the gospel.

TO THE WORLD: “to be the church scattered” - We build up one another in the gospel in order to live as bold witnesses of Christ in the Upper Valley and to the ends of the earth.

TO THE LORD: “for the glory of Christ” - As we fulfill this mission, we will bring increasing glory, worship, and praise to Jesus Christ, both now and for all eternity.

What We Believe

Valley Bible Church is evangelical, which means that we affirm the full authority of the Scriptures and the centrality of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, for all we do.

Want to know more about what we believe?

Valley Bible Church is committed to the teachings of Scripture for both theological understanding and life application. Read our Statement of Faith, which is an expression of what we believe the scriptures teach on key areas of Christian faith and doctrine.

It is also important to know what our spiritual leaders believe. We have adopted our VBC Elder and Teaching Affirmation of Faith as a more detailed expression of what we expect our elders to believe and to teach.
