Steel and Stone
Statement of Faith
Steel and Stone Ministries exists to glorify God by equipping individuals, couples, and families to live out a Christ-centered life through the transformative power of the Gospel. Our beliefs are firmly rooted in the inerrant Word of God and guided by His truth, grace, and love.
Our Core Beliefs
The Bible
We believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God. It is the ultimate standard for faith, life, and practice (2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21)
The Trinity
We believe in one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Each person of the Godhead is fully God, co-equal, and co-eternal (Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14).
Jesus Christ
We believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, fully God and fully man. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, lived a sinless life, died on the cross for our sins, and rose bodily from the grave, securing eternal life for all who believe in Him (John 1:1, 14; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4).
Salvation
We believe salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone. It is a gift of God, not earned by works, but freely given to those who repent and trust in Christ as their Lord and Savior (Ephesians 2:8-9; Romans 10:9-10).
The Holy Spirit
We believe the Holy Spirit indwells all believers, empowering them to live holy lives, bear spiritual fruit, and fulfill God’s purpose on earth. He convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment (John 16:7-11; Galatians 5:22-23).
The Church
We believe the Church is the body of Christ, made up of all believers united by faith in Jesus Christ. The Church exists to worship God, edify the saints, and proclaim the Gospel to the world (Ephesians 4:11-16; Matthew 28:19-20).
Marriage and Family
We believe marriage is a sacred covenant designed by God to unite one man and one woman as a reflection of Christ’s love for the Church. Families are foundational to society and are called to glorify God through their relationships (Genesis 2:24; Ephesians 5:22-33).
Mission and Discipleship
We believe every believer is called to grow in their faith and make disciples of all nations. We are committed to equipping individuals to live missionally, carrying the hope of the Gospel into their communities and beyond (Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 1:8).
Eternity
We believe in the bodily resurrection of all people. Those who trust in Christ will spend eternity in the presence of God, while those who reject Him will face eternal separation (John 3:16; Revelation 20:11-15).
Our Commitment
Steel and Stone Ministries is dedicated to fostering a community of believers who stand firm on the truth of God’s Word (Stone) while sharpening one another in love and accountability (Steel). We aim to inspire transformation, unity, and faithfulness to Christ as we journey together in life and ministry.
