About Us

Living Stones is a spiritual greenhouse where people are loved, encouraged and equipped to grow into all that Christ has called them to be. We are so excited about what God is doing here in Northwest Indiana, and we would love for you to be a part of it. We’re really looking forward to meeting you!

VISION

Renewing Hearts

It all starts with when people are supernaturally transformed by encountering Jesus and receiving Him as Savior and Lord. The Bible tells us that God does a heart transplant. He removes our old rebellious, selfish heart and replaces it with a new heart that treasures Jesus and wants to obey His will and commandments.

Restoring Homes

A transformed person will impact others. This naturally begins in one’s family. Jesus wants to transform our marriage relationships and our family dynamics. Strong marriages and families bring Christ glory while they strengthen the fabric of our churches and communities.

Reforming Culture

Transformed people transform culture. Jesus commissioned the Church to disciple nations. We do this by leading people to Christ and then teaching them to obey Him in every area of their lives. We believe Jesus is Lord over everything!

Reaching Nations

The Great Commission must become the Great Completion! Since every tribe and nation will be represented in heaven, our task is to share the gospel with those people groups who have yet to hear. We are committed to spreading the fame of His name throughout the unreached nations of the world.

Our Beliefs:

 

The Word of God

We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God and the infallible rule of faith and conduct. Believers are exhorted to study the Scriptures with diligence and to apply its truth to their lives (II Timothy 3:16; II Timothy 2:15).

The Trinity

We believe there is one God, the Creator of all things, eternally existing in three Persons – the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:1,26; John 1:1).

God the Father

We believe in God the Father, an infinite, personal Spirit and the Creator of all things. God is perfect in love, power, holiness, and wisdom. God is passionate about preserving, displaying, and magnifying His infinite worth and greatness (I Peter 1:3,4; I Timothy 2:5,6).

Jesus Christ

We believe Jesus Christ is the only begotten of the Father, conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, was crucified, died, was buried, resurrected, and is ascended to the Father’s right hand where He reigns as Lord over Creation and makes intercession for the saints (Matthew 1:18-25; Romans 5:6-8; Colossians 1:15-16).

Holy Spirit

We believe the Holy Spirit is active in the world today, convicting the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment and regenerating, sanctifying, and empowering all who believe in Jesus Christ (Acts 1:8; John 16:8-11; Galatians 5:22-25; I Corinthians 12).

Regeneration

We believe that those who repent, forsake sin, and trust Jesus Christ as Savior are regenerated by the Holy Spirit and become new creatures, are delivered from condemnation, and receive eternal life (John 3:3,16; Ephesians 1:7; II Corinthians 5:17).

The Church

We believe the Church is a community of believers in Jesus Christ, united in love and obedience to Christ, and called to advance the will and work of Christ in the world. We believe the Church, as the Body and Bride of Christ, is called to walk in purity, passion, and power as she eagerly awaits the return of her risen Lord. (Ephesians 4:15,16; Matthew 16:18; Hebrews 10:23-25; Ephesians 5:27).

The Ordinances

We believe in the ordinances of the Lord’s Supper and baptism by immersion for all believers (I Corinthians 11:17-34; Matthew 26:26-28; Matthew 28:19; Colossians 2:11, 12).

The Last Days

We believe in and anticipate the blessed hope, the glorious return of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. We joyfully proclaim His soon return and encourage and equip Christ’s Bride, the Church, to make herself ready (I Corinthians 15:51-58; I Thessalonians 4:13-18; Titus 2:13; Revelation 19:7).

Christian Living

We believe Christians are called to glorify God and to enjoy Him forever. Our highest joy and deepest satisfaction in life is found in knowing, loving, and prizing the glory of God above all else (I Corinthians 10:31; Psalm 16:11).
