A MESSAGE FROM OUR PASTOR

I'm Ryan Patino, the Lead Pastor at Gospel Grove Church. Originally from the Western Chicago Suburbs, my family I moved here in 2018. Gospel Grove has gone through a few transitions over the past few years, but I am excited about what God has in store for the next chapter of the church.

WE'RE BUILDING A CHURCH IN & FOR BARGERSVILLE

Many of the Bargersville residents I've met tell me they go to church in a different town. While there's nothing wrong with that, our heart is to see a new church developed that reaches and serves this growing community. Gospel Grove is a small core group with big dreams! If you share this dream, consider joining our team!

OUR BELIEFS

GOD

There is one God: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; who exists in unity as One and also as three distinct Persons. Genesis 1:1 | Genesis 1:26-27 | Genesis 3:22 | Exodus 3:14 | Psalm 19:1-3 | Jeremiah 10:10 John 4:24 | 1 Timothy 1:17
JESUS CHRIST

Jesus Christ is God's Son. He was born of a virgin as both God and man, lived a sinless life, died to atone for the sins of human beings, was buried, arose from the grave, ascended into heaven and will literally return to earth. Isaiah 7:14 | Isaiah 9:6 | Matthew 1:18-23 | John 1:1-18 | Colossians 1:13-22 | Philippians 2:5-11 | Hebrews 1:1-4
THE HOLY SPIRIT

The Holy Spirit is the divine helper, assistant, counselor and instructor and His work is to reveal Christ, convict of sin, lead to repentance, guide believers, comfort, strengthen, and sanctify the soul. Genesis 1:2 | Matthew 1:18 | John 16:7-14 | Acts 1:8 | Acts 2:1-4 | Ephesians 1:13-14
THE BIBLE

The Bible is God's Holy Word. It is literally God-breathed and wholly truthful without any mixture of error, and is the sole authority for faith and life. Exodus 24:4 | Joshua 8:34 | Jeremiah 36:1-32 | 2 Timothy 3:15-17 | Hebrews 1:1-2 | 2 Peter 1:19-21
HUMANITY

Human beings are the special creations of God, made in His image. They fell through the sin of the first man, Adam, and all human beings are sinners in need of salvation from the penalty of sin. Genesis 1:27 | Genesis 2:7 | Psalm 8:3-6 | Isaiah 53:6 | Isaiah 59:12 | Romans 1:18-20 | Romans 3:23
SALVATION

Salvation is a gift from God that is received by grace through repentance toward God and faith in Jesus Christ. Every person who truly is saved is eternally secure in the Lord Jesus Christ and will spend eternity in heaven, while those who die in their sins will spend eternity in hell. Genesis 3:15 | John 3:1-17 | Romans 3:23-25 | Romans 5:8-10 | Romans 6:23 | Romans 10:9-13 | Ephesians 2:8-10
BAPTISM

Baptism is by immersion after salvation in obedience to Jesus Christ's command as a declaration of our faith and new life in Him. Matthew 3:13-17 | Matthew 28:19-20 | Acts 2:41-42 | Romans 6:3-5
THE LORD'S SUPPER

The Lord's Supper is a symbolic act of obedience whereby members of the church, through partaking of the bread and the fruit of the vine, memorialize the death of the Redeemer and anticipate His second coming. Matthew 26:26-30 | Mark 14:22-26 | Luke 22:14-20 | 1 Corinthians 11:23-29
THE CHURCH

The church is a local body of baptized believers with the Lord Jesus Christ as the Head, united in the mission to tell everyone in the world the Good News of salvation through Jesus Christ. Acts 2:41-47 | Matthew 16:15-19 | Matthew 18:15-20 | Ephesians 1:22-23 | Ephesians 2:19-22
