Our Core Beliefs

New Hope is a local gathering of people in Middle Tennessee who love Jesus, love others, and are committed to share the hope of Jesus in our local community and around the world.

We believe in and surrender our lives to the one true God who made the heavens and earth and who breathed life into humanity. We worship and praise the Father who spoke the world into existence, Jesus, the Son, who died upon the cross to redeem us from sin, and the Holy Spirit who is the seal of our salvation.

The Bible is the inspired Word of God. It is sharp, powerful, effective, challenging, exposing, and encouraging when it is revered, studied, preached, taught, and obeyed because it is from our Creator and therefore relevant for all generations.
