HRBMC is a Bible-based Church that seeks to love God completely, to love people unconditionally, and to share that love consistently with our Community, so all people may enjoy a growing relationship with God.
(Mt. 22:37-39 and Mt. 28:19-20)
We do this by being a faith-based, cross-centric, spirit-filled, love-saturated, mission-minded, prayer-driven church.
•Salvation, Sanctification, all spiritual graces and growth are received and achieved through faith.
•The Cross is central to all we do and we embrace its extreme calling and message.
•Being Spirit-filled powers holy living and genuine community impact.
•Saturated with the love of God we believe in living Christ-pleasing lives without judgmental attitudes.
•Mission mindedness enables us to be outward-looking and neighbor-reaching in our actions. It is the result of our belief that the power of Christ is sufficient for every earthly need.
•Prayer is the engine that sustains and drives us forward as individuals and as a body.
