OUR CORE BELIEFS
WE BELIEVE IN GOD.
We worship one God who is existent in three persons - the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
WE BELIEVE IN THE BIBLE.
We are centered on the teachings of the Old and New Testaments which are the infallible and complete Word of God.
WE BELIEVE IN JESUS.
We acknowledge that Jesus Christ is the only Son of God, that He died on the cross and was resurrected on the third day to save the world from sin.
WE BELIEVE IN SALVATION.
We believe salvation is available to everyone but only through faith in Jesus Christ.
WE BELIEVE IN THE PRESENT WORK OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
We believe that the Holy Spirit reveals God's love to our darkened world, enables the believer to live a God-honoring life and empowers them to advance the gospel message.
OUR VISION
GROWING PASSIONATE FOLLOWERS OF CHRIST
​
​It is our vision be a welcoming church learning to love God and the
people around us by actively seeking to be filled and transformed by
the power of the Holy Spirit. As we learn to experience God’s
presence every day, we envision our members to be passionate
followers of Christ with a heart to see those far from God come to
know the power of His love and grace.
We will work to realize this vision by holding weekly worship
services and other programs designed to deepen our
commitment to God and His ways, leading to spiritual maturity.
We will emphasize that participation in small groups is the
primary vehicle for real life change. We will not seek to promote
any doctrine other than that which is expressly stated in
scripture. We will also actively pursue inviting people into our
faith community.
OUR PASTOR
SAM TANNER
Pastor Sam Tanner and his wife, Susie, have traveled extensively in the U.S. and overseas sharing with people about how they can know and experience God's love and plan for their lives. They first met as missionaries in Moscow, Russia, where Sam was the director of a conference ministry for Campus Crusade and Susie was a teacher in a school for missionary children. Upon their return from overseas, and burdened with a common vision to begin a new church, they settled in Orlando, Florida in 1995 where they started and led Family Life Church
​
As the Orlando church grew strong, Sam once again felt burdened to start another church this time in his home area of Southern California. They planted a church in Mira Loma and later on moved to the theater in Eastvale.
​
Pastor Sam is a graduate of Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, California. He also has an MBA degree from California State University of Long Beach. Susie earned her Masters degree in Education and is currently a kindergarten teacher at Del Sol Academy in Mira Loma. They have two adult children, Alyssa and Austin. Together, they are working to bring God's message of hope to our community.
