OUR BELIEFS

• We believe the Bible is the written word of God, inspired by the Holy Spirit and without error in the original manuscripts. The Bible is the revelation of God’s truth and is infallible and authoritative in all matters of faith and practice.
• We believe in the Holy Trinity. There is one God, who exists eternally in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
• We believe that all are sinners and totally unable to save themselves from God’s displeasure, except by His mercy.
• We believe that salvation is by God alone as He sovereignly chooses those He will save. We believe His choice is based on His grace, not on any human individual merit.
• We believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, who, through His perfect life and sacrificial death, atoned for the sins of all who will trust in Him, alone, for salvation.
• We believe that God is gracious and faithful to His people, not simply as individuals, but as families in successive generations according to His Covenant promises.
• We believe that the Holy Spirit indwells God’s people and gives them the strength and wisdom to trust Christ and follow Him.
• We believe that Jesus will return, bodily and visibly, to judge all mankind and to receive His people to Himself.
• We believe that all aspects of our lives are to be lived to the glory of God under the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

OUR DENOMINATION

Eastbridge Presbyterian Church is a congregation of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA).

The PCA has a strong commitment to evangelism, missionary work at home and abroad, and to Christian education. From its inception, the church has determined its purpose to be "faithful to the Scriptures, true to the reformed faith and obedient to the Great Commission." The church was formed in 1973 and is made up of thousands of churches that are theologically  conservative and diverse in their expression.

OUR MISSION and VISION

We serve a great and merciful God who bridged the great gulf that separated us from him. He is also breaking down walls that alienate us from one another.

As the bridges of Charleston link the various islands and peninsulas of our beautiful low country making us one community in our geography – we have been called to build spiritual and personal bridges of understanding and relationship with each other within our church and with others throughout our region and indeed the world.

We are EastBRIDGE. We exist to build connectedness and heal brokenness. As we do so, our Triune God becomes better known and honored. HIS bridge building passions were supremely demonstrated in sending his Son, our Savior, to cross the great divide between us and him created by our sin.

Therefore, in reliance upon his Holy Spirit, may our God, who unites us to himself, and to one another, be glorified by establishing these sturdy, durable connections we call, “Gospel bridges”, to each other. Our increasingly lonely, relationally desolate and dysfunctional world desperately needs to know and worship our blessed God. He pours his love and grace THROUGH us because he has gotten it TO us. So, come and join the community of bridge builders, and do your part in rolling back the estrangement that Christ is banishing and will one day completely banish from the earth.
