Statement of Faith

Rooted in Scripture. Centered on Christ. Serving the Church.

Trellis Grace: Ministry & Books is an interdenominational Christian ministry and publishing house dedicated to strengthening the Church through biblical teaching, discipleship, Christian literature, and the development of Christian leaders. We seek to serve believers across denominational traditions while remaining faithful to Scripture and the historic Christian faith.

1. The Holy Scriptures

We believe the Bible, consisting of the Old and New Testaments, is inspired by God and the supreme authority for Christian faith, doctrine, and conduct.

2. The Triune God

We believe in one God, eternally existing as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—three distinct persons, equal in divinity, power, and glory.

3. Jesus Christ

We believe Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, fully God and fully man. We affirm His virgin birth, sinless life, atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension, and personal, visible return.

4. Humanity and Sin

We believe humanity was created in God's image but has fallen into sin and is in need of God's forgiveness and redemption.

5. Salvation

We believe salvation is the gift of God's grace, made possible through Jesus Christ and received through repentance and faith. We are saved by grace through faith, not by works, and are called to live transformed lives of obedience and holiness.

6. The Holy Spirit

We believe the Holy Spirit is fully God, gives new life to believers, dwells within them, develops Christlike character, and empowers the Church for faithful witness and service.

7. The Church

We believe the Church is the body of Christ, called to worship God, proclaim the gospel, make disciples, serve others, and equip believers for ministry. We value Christian unity and cooperation across denominational traditions while remaining committed to biblical truth.

8. Baptism and Communion

We recognize water baptism and the Lord's Supper as biblical practices commanded by Christ. We respect differences among Christian traditions concerning their mode, timing, and theological significance.

9. Christian Living and Sexual Morality

We believe Christians are called to holiness, integrity, love, and obedience to God's Word. We believe marriage is the covenantal union of one man and one woman, and that sexual intimacy belongs within marriage. Sexual activity outside this covenant, including homosexual sexual activity, is contrary to biblical teaching. We affirm the dignity of every person and are committed to treating all people with compassion, respect, and grace.

10. Christ's Return and Eternal Hope

We believe Jesus Christ will return in glory, the dead will be raised, and God will bring about final judgment and the renewal of creation. We look forward to eternal life in His presence and the fulfillment of His kingdom.

11. Our Commitment

As both a ministry and a publishing house, Trellis Grace Ministry & Books is committed to producing and promoting Christ-centered resources that uphold biblical truth, encourage spiritual growth, and equip the Church. We welcome collaboration across Christian traditions while ensuring that our ministry and publishing remain consistent with our foundational beliefs.
