The Story of Bolingbrook Church

Our Mission & Vision

At Bolingbrook Church, we exist to see lives transformed.


This kind of transformation is not just a moment, but a lifelong journey of walking with God. We exist to create space where people can encounter Jesus, experience His love, and be renewed from the inside out. As we are transformed, we become part of God’s work to bring healing, hope, and restoration to the world around us.


  • Belonging: We aspire to be a place of belonging, where everyone is welcome to come just as they are.
  • Community: Bolingbrook is a place for you to find and build community.
  • Spiritual Growth: Bolingbrook Church is a place to grow spirituality and mature in your faith.
  • Serve: Bolingbrook is a people who believe in incarnational ministry, where we practice what we preach.


As people move through these spaces, they grow in faith, serve others, give generously, and invite others into the same journey. We believe discipleship leads to lives filled with love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control, the life God always intended.

Our Guiding Principles

We are committed to living out the values of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Our mission is to see lives transformed.


Prayerful

We include prayer in everything we do, knowing that it is our most powerful vehicle through which we can directly connect to God. Through prayer, we give God unlimited access to our lives in order to accomplish His sovereign will through us.



Gracious Flexibility

We are willing to change or modify established human traditions and embrace biblical truths and practices in order to fully demonstrate God’s eternal love.


Church of One

We embrace, celebrate, and invite a multiplicity of cultures, ethnicities, generations, and various social economic classes to come together as one family, unified to fulfill a grander God-given vision to create spaces for those who find themselves far from God.


Authentic

We foster authenticity by modeling vulnerability in leadership, creating a culture of acceptance, cultivating genuine compassion and empathy to those around us, in order to display the depths of God’s love.


Intentional Excellence

We are committed to using our strengths, talents, and thoughtful planning to create a culture that reflects the wonder of God.

Our Beliefs

We invite you to explore our beliefs and join us in our pursuit of living out our faith in boldness and passion.

  • The Holy Scriptures

    The Holy Scriptures, Old and New Testaments, are the written Word of God, given by divine inspiration.


    The inspired authors spoke and wrote as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. In this Word, God has committed to humanity the knowledge necessary for salvation.


    The Holy Scriptures are the supreme, authoritative, and the infallible revelation of His will. They are the standard of character, the test of experience, the definitive revealer of doctrines, and the trustworthy record of God’s acts in history.


    Scripture References:

    (Ps. 119:105; Prov. 30:5, 6; Isa. 8:20; John 17:17; 1 Thess. 2:13; 2 Tim. 3:16, 17; Heb. 4:12; 2 Peter 1:20, 21.)

  • The Trinity

    There is one God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, a unity of three coeternal Persons.


    God is immortal, all-powerful, all-knowing, above all, and ever present. He is infinite and beyond human comprehension, yet known through His self-revelation.


    God, who is love, is forever worthy of worship, adoration, and service by the whole creation.


    Scripture References:

    (Gen. 1:26; Deut. 6:4; Isa. 6:8; Matt. 28:19; John 3:16; 2 Cor. 1:21, 22; 13:14; Eph. 4:4-6; 1 Peter 1:2.)

  • God the Father

    God the eternal Father is the Creator, Source, Sustainer, and Sovereign of all creation. He is just and holy, merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.


    The qualities and powers exhibited in the Son and the Holy Spirit are also those of the Father.


    Scripture References:

    (Gen. 1:1; Deut. 4:35; Ps. 110:1, 4; John 3:16; 14:9; 1 Cor. 15:28; 1 Tim. 1:17; 1 John 4:8; Rev. 4:11.)

  • God the Son

    God the eternal Son became incarnate in Jesus Christ. Through Him all things were created, the character of God is revealed, the salvation of humanity is accomplished, and the world is judged.


    Forever truly God, He became also truly human, Jesus the Christ. He was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. He lived and experienced temptation as a human being, but perfectly exemplified the righteousness and love of God.


    By His miracles He manifested God’s power and was attested as God’s promised Messiah. He suffered and died voluntarily on the cross for our sins and in our place, was raised from the dead, and ascended to heaven to minister in the heavenly sanctuary on our behalf.


    He will come again in glory for the final deliverance of His people and the restoration of all things.


    Scripture References:

    (Isa. 53:4-6; Dan. 9:25-27; Luke 1:35; John 1:1-3, 14; 5:22; 10:30; 14:1–3, 9, 13; Rom. 6:23; 1 Cor. 15:3, 4; 2 Cor. 3:18; 5:17-19; Phil. 2:5–11; Col. 1:15-19; Heb. 2:9-18; 8:1, 2.)

  • God the Holy Spirit

    God the eternal Spirit was active with the Father and the Son in Creation, incarnation, and redemption.


    He is as much a person as are the Father and the Son. He inspired the writers of Scripture. He filled Christ’s life with power. He draws and convicts human beings; and those who respond He renews and transforms into the image of God.


    Sent by the Father and the Son to be always with His children, He extends spiritual gifts to the church, empowers it to bear witness to Christ, and in harmony with the Scriptures leads it into all truth.


    Scripture References:

    (Gen. 1:1, 2; 2 Sam. 23:2; Ps. 51:11; Isa. 61:1; Luke 1:35; 4:18; John 14:16-18, 26; 15:26; 16:7-13; Acts 1:8; 5:3; 10:38; Rom. 5:5; 1 Cor. 12:7-11; 2 Cor. 3:18; 2 Peter 1:21.)

  • Creation

    God has revealed in Scripture the authentic and historical account of His creative activity. He created the universe, and in a recent six-day creation the Lord made “the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them” and rested on the seventh day.


    Thus He established the Sabbath as a perpetual memorial of the work He performed and completed during six literal days that together with the Sabbath constituted the same unit of time that we call a week today.


    The first man and woman were made in the image of God as the crowning work of Creation, given dominion over the world, and charged with responsibility to care for it. When the world was finished it was “very good,” declaring the glory of God.


    Scripture References:

    (Gen. 1-2; 5; 11; Exod. 20:8-11; Ps. 19:1–6; 33:6, 9; 104; Isa. 45:12, 18; Acts 17:24; Col. 1:16; Heb. 1:2; 11:3; Rev. 10:6; 14:7.)

  • Nature of Humanity

    Man and woman were made in the image of God with individuality, the power and freedom to think and to do. Though created free beings, each is an indivisible unity of body, mind, and spirit, dependent upon God for life and breath and all else.


    When our first parents disobeyed God, they denied their dependence upon Him and fell from their high position. The image of God in them was marred and they became subject to death.


    Their descendants share this fallen nature and its consequences. They are born with weaknesses and tendencies to evil. But God in Christ reconciled the world to Himself and by His Spirit restores in penitent mortals the image of their Maker. Created for the glory of God, they are called to love Him and one another, and to care for their environment.


    Scripture References:

    (Gen. 1:26-28; 2:7, 15; 3; Ps. 8:4-8; 51:5, 10; 58:3; Jer. 17:9; Acts 17:24-28; Rom. 5:12-17; 2 Cor. 5:19, 20; Eph. 2:3; 1 Thess. 5:23; 1 John 3:4; 4:7, 8, 11, 20.)

  • The Life, Death and Resurrection of Christ

    In Christ’s life of perfect obedience to God’s will, His suffering, death, and resurrection, God provided the only means of atonement for human sin, so that those who by faith accept this atonement may have eternal life, and the whole creation may better understand the infinite and holy love of the Creator.


    This perfect atonement vindicates the righteousness of God’s law and the graciousness of His character; for it both condemns our sin and provides for our forgiveness.


    The death of Christ is substitutionary and expiatory, reconciling and transforming. The bodily resurrection of Christ proclaims God’s triumph over the forces of evil, and for those who accept the atonement, assures their final victory over sin and death. It declares the Lordship of Jesus Christ, before whom every knee in heaven and on earth will bow.
