What We Believe
Glory Gather is an interdenominational community for Christians in the music industry. We are rooted in the historic, orthodox Christian faith and united around the essential truths that have defined the Church throughout history.
As Augustine famously said:
"In essentials, unity. In non-essentials, liberty. In everything, love."
We welcome believers from many traditions who share these foundational convictions.
We believe...
-
The Bible is the inspired, authoritative, and trustworthy Word of God, revealing His character, His purposes, and His will for humanity.
-
There is one God, eternally existing as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
-
Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man. He lived a sinless life, died for our sins, rose bodily from the dead, ascended to the Father, and will return in glory.
-
The Gospel is the good news that through Jesus' life, death, and resurrection, God offers forgiveness, reconciliation, and new life to all who place their faith in Him.
-
Salvation is by God's grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone - not by human effort or works.
-
The Holy Spirit dwells within every believer, transforming us into Christ's likeness and empowering the Church for worship, witness, service, and mission. We believe the gifts of the Holy Spirit remain active today and should always be exercised in accordance with Scripture.
-
The Church is the worldwide body of Christ, made up of all who belong to Him across every nation, culture, denomination, and generation.
-
Humanity was created in the image of God with inherent dignity, value, and purpose, yet all people have fallen into sin and are in need of God's redeeming grace.
-
God is restoring all things. We look forward to the return of Christ, the resurrection of the dead, the renewal of creation, and eternal life with Him.
As a community, we seek to hold firmly to these historic truths while extending humility, grace, and love in areas where faithful Christians have long held differing convictions.
