Meet The Team Mars Hill Community Church is guided by our Staff, guarded by our Elders and gifted by our Congregation. What this means in practicality is that our staff is responsible for communicating vision within their areas of responsibility, developing ministry plans to support that vision and managing the ongoing tasks within their roles. Our Elders have four primary areas of responsibility: guarding our vision and doctrine, financial oversight, church discipline and pastor accountability. Leadership at Mars Hill is not exclusive to the staff and elders. Our congregation is made up of a wide variety of men, women and students who lead and serve along with the staff and elders to make up the Body of Christ, which is the church.

- I'M NEW | Mars Hill
WELCOME Join Us For Worship This Sunday! Mars Hill Community Church is an independent non-denominational Bible church. We are resolutely focused on investing our lives in sharing Jesus Christ and growing His followers. We invite you to come engage in life-giving community, transformational Bible study, and kingdom focused ministry. Our weekly services last about 75 minutes. We believe the Bible is God's word to us and therefore we highly value being Biblically centered across our ministries. Our sermons will be a mix of expository and topical teaching but always founded on God's inerrant Word. We endeavor to sing songs that direct our minds to biblical truth in a distinctly contemporary style, led by our worship team. Our dress is casual and we hope you will plan to hang around after the service for fellowship. NEXT STEPS 01 Contact Form Fill out this contact form so we can be expecting your arrival on Sunday!

- WHAT WE BELIEVE | Mars Hill
ABOUT US WHAT WE BELIEVE The following are the core beliefs of Mars Hill Community Church based on the foundational truths taught in the Bible. All of our teaching and ministry is rooted in and flows out of these biblical doctrines. Meet Our Team What we believe DOCTRINE 1. GOD God is the creator and ruler of the universe. He has eternally existed in three persons – the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and are one God. Genesis 1:1, 26, 27, 3:22; Psalm 90:2; Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14; 1 Peter 1:2 2. MANKIND AND THE FALL Man is made in the spiritual image of God, to be like him in character. He is the supreme object of God’s creation. Although man has tremendous potential for good, he is marred by an attitude of disobedience toward God called "sin." This attitude separates man from God. Genesis 1:27; Psalm 8:3-6; Isaiah 53:6a, 59:1-2; Romans 3:23 3. ETERNITY Man was created to exist forever. He will either exist eternally separated from God by sin or in union with God through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally separated from God is hell. To be eternally in union with him is eternal life. Heaven and hell are places of eternal existence. Matthew 25:31-46; John 2:25, 3:16, 5:11-13; Romans 6:23; 1 John 5:11-12; Revelation 20:15 4. JESUS CHRIST Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is co-equal with the Father. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all men by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to heaven’s glory and will return again to earth to reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Isaiah 9:6; Matthew 1:22-23; John 1:1-5, 14:10-30; Acts 1:9-11; Romans 1:3-4; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4; 1 Timothy 6:14-15; Titus 2:13; Hebrews 4:14-15 5. SALVATION Salvation is a gift from God to man. Man can never make up for his sin by self-improvement or good works – only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God’s offer of forgiveness can man be saved from sin’s penalty. Eternal life begins the moment one receives Jesus Christ into his life by faith. John 1:12, 14:6, Romans 5:1, 6:23; Galatians 3:26; Ephesians 2:8-9; Titus 3:5 6. ETERNAL SECURITY Because God gives man eternal life through Jesus Christ, the believer is secure in salvation for eternity. Salvation is maintained by the grace and power of God, not by the self-effort of the Christian. John 10:29; 2 Timothy 1:12; Hebrews 7:25, 10:10 & 14; 1 Peter 1:3-5 7. THE HOLY SPIRIT The Holy Spirit is equal with the Father and the Son as God. He is present in the world to make men aware of their need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. The Christian seeks to live under his control daily. John 14:16-17, 16:7-13; Acts 1:8; 1 Corinthians 2:12, 3:16; 2 Corinthians 3:17; Galatians 5:25; Ephesians 1:13, 5:1 8. THE BIBLE The Bible is God’s word to all men. It was written by human authors, under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. Because it is inspired by God, it is truth without any mixture of error. Psalm 12:6, 119:105 & 160; Proverbs 30:5; 2 Timothy 1:13, 3:16; 2 Peter 1:20, 21 9. BAPTISM Baptism by immersion symbolizes the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus and is your public declaration that you have accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior. Baptism does not save you, but shows the world that you have already been saved. And while baptism is not required for salvation, it is a biblical command and demonstrates your love and obedience to Christ. Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 2:41; Ephesians 2: 8-9; Colossians 2:12 10. COMMUNION Communion, or the Lord’s Supper, is an ordinance given to all believers by Jesus Christ to remember his sacrifice for us and to symbolize the new covenant. The elements of bread and wine or juice are symbols of Christ’s broken body and shed blood. Communion is not a means of salvation. Rather, it is a testament of a believer’s faith in the atoning work of the cross. Matthew 26:26-30; Mark 14:22-26; Luke 22:19-20; 1 Corinthians 11:23-29
- VINTAGE (SENIORS) | Mars Hill
"But as for you, teach what accords with sound doctrine. Older men are to be sober-minded, dignified, self-controlled, sound in faith, in love, and in steadfastness. Older women likewise are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers or slaves to much wine. They are to teach what is good, and so train the young women to love their husbands and children" Titus 2:1-4 Vintage is our Seniors Ministry that meets weekly on Wednesdays at 6:00 PM in the Fellowship Hall for Bible Study. We gather for dinner on the fourth Wednesday of every month. Contact Our Vintage Pastor Jim Burt Vintage Pastor Mail VINTAGE Livestream Wednesdays at 6:00 PM. Vintage dinner nights (the fourth Wednesday) are not typically live streamed.
- BAPTISM | Mars Hill
Baptism "We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life." Romans 6:4 Buried with Christ and Raised to Walk in Newness of Life Baptism is an outward expression of an inward change. It doesn’t change our eternal destiny or our standing with God. Rather, it is a public expression of what has already transpired in our lives. It is a declaration of our faith in Christ and our decision to become one of His followers. A good illustration of the significance of baptism is that of a wedding ring. The ring is a symbol of the love and promises shared by husband and wife. It is worn proudly as an expression of belonging to another and as an expression of love for another. Like the wedding ring, baptism is a symbol. And, like the ring, it is a significant one – for it is the one our Lord himself gives us. Common Baptism Questions I Want To Be Baptized

Women discipling women through the teaching of Scripture, relationship building and helping ministries in order to bring glory to God and strengthen His church. "But we behaved gently when we were among you, like a devoted mother tenderly caring for her own children. Having such a deep affection for you, we were delighted to share with you not only God’s good news but also our own lives, because you had become so very dear to us." 1 Thessalonians 2:7-8 Vision This is a Paragraph. Click on "Edit Text" or double click on the text box to start editing the content and make sure to add any relevant details or information that you want to share with your visitors. The Mars Hill Women's Ministry believes that our purpose is God's glory and that our authority for living is God's word. We seek to exhibit the characteristics of biblical women through the study of God's word, community life, compassion and care and living out a helper / lifegiver design. The five areas of focus for our Women's MInistry are: Submission to the headship of the church. (1 Timothy 2:9-15) Equipping women for lifegiving compassion ministries in home and church and community. (1 Timothy 3:11) Cultivating relationships and community within the church. (1 Timothy 5:1-16) Discipleship by study and example to grow in Christlikeness and to fulfill our creation design as women. (Titus 2:3-5) Always looking to God's word as authority and not being driven by current practices or feelings. (2 Timothy 3:1-9, 14-16) Depending on God's grace, to Him alone be the glory. FELLOWSHIP The Bible teaches that God offers us a place in His covenant family! Isolation and independence are the opposite of what God desires for us. As a part of God's family, we are meant to share life together, to strengthen one another, and to disciple each other in growing in grace. Fellowship provides opportunities to connect and to share our gifts and graces with one another. The goal of every fellowship activity is to glorify God and exalt His name together. Upcoming Events GROW We are dependent on the grace of Christ alone to grow in his grace and knowledge. At Mars Hill we seek to provide discipleship through multi-generational teaching that begins with sound doctrine based on the authority of God's infallible word and is coupled with sharing our lives so that we can build a legacy of biblical womanhood to be passed from one generation to the next. Discipleship Opportunities SERVE We desire to point one another to the power and strength offered in Christ which guides us in caring for the spiritual and practical needs of the church. We reflect his image as we serve his body. Mars Hill seeks to provide opportunities for women to serve the church and the community outside the church for His glory.
