Our Vision


Geneva Presbyterian Church aspires to be known as followers of Jesus who are remembering, telling, and living the way of Jesus through praise and worship.

Who We Are

 

We are a congregation characterized by "a generous orthodoxy." That means, we are theologically centered in Jesus Christ, rooted in the Gospel, set in the Reformed tradition, committed to loving God and others as a church in the Presbyterian Church (USA), and not being known by boundaries of who's in and who's out.

 

Our congregation of followers of Jesus desires to live in a way that inspires others to a better way of living that is promised in and through Jesus Christ. We are welcoming and supportive of all who are seeking a better way to live, even when their faith is not clearly centered and may even be tentative or unformed.

 

We are also blessed with resources, financial means, talented members, and a church campus to LOVE [saddleback valley], our nation, and the world, which has incredible human need. We affirm a worldview of abundance as opposed to scarcity, as we seek to be the best Jesus others will see and encounter.

Our Church Is Committed To:
  • Worship & Excellent Music in Both Contemporary & Traditional Formats

  • Fellowship in Order to Know One Another & Become More Unified in Our Common Commitment to Love God & Others

  • Discipleship in Creative Formats Where the Bible Is Foundational to Learn About God's Message of Redemption & New Life In & Through Jesus Christ

  • Service as we LOVE [saddleback valley] & the World Through Local & Global Partnerships In Word & Deed

 

What We Believe:

 

  • God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is the Creator, Redeemer, and Sustainer of life.

  • Jesus Christ is the way, the truth, and the life.

  • The Bible is God's authoritative message on how humanity is reconciled to God and is to live as a new community modeling hope to a hurting world.

  • Our church's mission is to love God and others through words and deeds that demonstrate the unconditional love, mercy, grace, and peace of God; confront injustice; and proclaim that all things will be made new in Jesus Christ.

  • The church is God's presence in the Saddleback Valley, our nation, and the world serving others, particularly those who are marginalized.

  • Authenticity and transparency are essential characteristics to embrace for wholeness as humans.

  • Confession of sin and giving/receiving forgiveness are normative Christian practices that are life-giving.

  • God's grace is costly, freely given, and unmerited, beckoning all humanity to recognize their need for salvation.
