Our Beliefs
Blackhorse Road Baptist Church is part of the Baptist Union of Great Britain and agree with the Baptist Declaration of Principle.
We are also members of the Evangelical Alliance and believe the historic Christian faith as expressed in the Evangelical Alliance Basis of Faith.
Our Values
We aim to be "Living for God, Growing Together and Sharing Jesus"
Living for God
We believe in the good news that the God who made us loves us, is committed to us and sent Jesus into the world to bring us back to Him. Through Jesus we can find our true identity in knowing God and living for him.
Worship is our response to all that God has done in our lives. We express this together in our services through singing, prayer, scripture and testimony and also as we live for him in our places of work, neighbourhood and homes.
Growing Together
None of us are perfect but we believe in the transforming power of God and recognise that this transformation can take place over a whole lifetime. We seek to help one another discover the changes we need to make in our lives to become more like Jesus. We aim to create an environment where needs can be met, hurts can be healed and nobody is forgotten.
Our church is made up of people at all stages of Christian experience. We hope that we can help each with honest answers to honest questions about life and faith. So whatever stage of life you are at you're welcome to join us as we seek to help one another grow in faith, hope and love.
Sharing Jesus
We believe that Jesus came because God loves people. In the Bible we read about how Jesus demonstrated God's love through his words and actions. We want to share this love of God, revealed in Christ, with our words and actions here in Walthamstow and all around the world. We believe that Jesus cares about every aspect of our lives and for every person in our community so we aim to do so too. We believe that people's lives can be transformed by the love of God.
