our story
Connecting real people to a real God
In the fall of 1928, two brothers came to Bismarck with a call to reach this city with the message of Jesus. Today, we are standing in the harvest of the seeds those men planted. We are reaping what generations before us sowed in faith.
But we can’t stop here. As we honor the past, we also look ahead and pursue what God would have us build for future generations, how He would have us sacrifice for the ministry that is still to come, and who He wants us to reach with His message of forgiveness and hope through Jesus.

Jesus
Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is co-equal with the Father. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all humanity by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to heaven and will return again to reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is equal with the Father and the Son as God. He is present in the world to make humanity aware of their need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every believer from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. The Christian seeks to live under His guidance daily.
Salvation
Salvation is God’s gift to you if you’ll accept it. We can never make up for our sin with self-improvement or good works. It is only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God’s offer of forgiveness that you can be saved from sin’s penalty. Eternal life begins the moment you receive Jesus Christ into your life by faith.
The Bible
The Bible is God’s Word to all humanity. It was written by human authors under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the ultimate source of truth for Christian beliefs and living.
Humanity
Humanity is made in the image of God. Although God designed us to have fellowship with Him, we became alienated from God through disobedience. As a result, all human beings are born with a sinful nature and choose to sin against God. We are incapable of regaining a right relationship with God through our own efforts.
Eternity
You were created to exist forever. We believe that forever is spent in one of two places: eternally separated from God because of sin or in union with God because of His forgiveness and salvation. When you die, you will either spend eternity in heaven or hell. Eternal separation from God happens in hell. Eternal union with God occurs in heaven.
Power of God
In relationship with Jesus, we are not only saved from our sins and transformed by His work in our lives. We also become carriers of His power that works in us and through us.
The Church
The Church is the body of believers who gather together for worship, encouragement, support, and mission.
