About Us

Our values and beliefs make us who we are. Learn more about us here.

Our Core Values

These core values keep us focused on our mission and vision as a local church. They unite us together in purpose as we seek to know Jesus and make Him known. Watch the video below and see how our values shape our identity as a church in Santa Rosa.

Gather to Worship Christ Expand We faithfully meet together in fellowship to worship Jesus Christ through the study of His Word, corporate prayer, and sharing our lives together (Acts 2:42-46; Hebrews 10:25). Grow to Know Christ Expand Through the work of the Holy Spirit, we seek to carefully teach and accurately apply God’s Word to equip and encourage one another to give our lives for His glory and the good of others (2 Corinthians 8:9; 9:7-8; Ephesians 4:11-16; 2 Timothy 2:2; 1 Peter 4:10). Go to Make Christ Known Expand We strive to honor God by being purposeful in sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ, both locally and internationally (Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 1:8; 2 Corinthians 5:17-21).

What We Teach

We believe the Bible as the ultimate authority over our lives. As a result, we trust that true Christian unity only comes about by holding to the whole counsel of God, rather than simply trying to find a few things upon which we can agree. At the same time, we do not claim to be perfect in this affirmation of our beliefs. Though not exhaustive, this statement represents the interpretation by the Elders and is our best understanding of the key teachings of the Bible. We believe these truths passionately and they are the grounds of our unity. As such, we expect our members to agree not to advance beliefs contrary to the following doctrinal statement.

The third core value of SRBC is Go make Christ known.

World outreach has been a hallmark of SRBC for our entire history. It is our desire to share God’s plan of salvation locally and globally with those who don’t know God, exhorting them to trust Christ as their Savior and helping them become His disciples (Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 1:8). We challenge our church family regularly to seek the Lord’s direction to pray, give, or go regarding mission outreach.

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”- Jesus
