Our Story & Heart

Learn More About Us

Our mission and our values demonstrate who we are and flow from what we believe.

Our Mission

"To impact the world around us through the Good News of Jesus Christ."

At Central Life Church, we exist to love God, love people, and see lives transformed by Jesus. We are a community of ordinary people on an extraordinary journey of faith.

To Love, Impact & Restore Lives

1
We Exist to

Love

Jesus Christ is the greatest treasure anyone can ever know. We are not a performance-driven people — we love as Christ loves. The basis of everything we do is through relationship with God and each other.

2
We Exist to

Impact

Together we can achieve more. We are a team-based community church with a passion to build strong and effective teams that serve the body of Christ — in our neighbourhood and across the nations.

3
We Exist to

Restore Lives

God wants to heal, restore and transform all of humanity. We believe that through the Good News of Jesus, broken lives are made whole — and we carry that message of hope, healing and transformation to our community.

Here's What We Value as a Church

The core values of any community reflect who it is and what it believes. These six values shape everything we do at Central Life.

Value 01

We Are a Family, Not a Business

We are not a performance-driven people — we love as Christ loves. The basis of everything we do is through relationship with God and each other.

Value 02

Friendship Before Function

We value relationship over function. We are more concerned about being in a relationship with a person than what function they can provide to the church.

Value 03

Together We Achieve More

We are a team-based community church. When we work together, using each person's God-given gifting, we can achieve far more for the Kingdom.

Value 04

God's Grace & Freedom

We apply God's grace and freedom to everything we do. We base our community and ministry on the freedom and the love that comes through Christ alone.

Value 05

Respond with Flexibility

We believe being flexible to what God is doing at any given moment is the key to personal growth and to effective, Spirit-led ministry.

Value 06

Accountability & Connection

We are in relationship with the Full Gospel Churches of Australia, providing accountability, support, and connection with the wider body of Christ.

What We Believe

What we believe about the Bible instructs everything that we value as a church.

01
The Bible

The Bible is the inspired Word of God. It is accurate, authoritative and applicable today for our everyday lives.

02
One Eternal God

We believe in one eternal God who is the Creator of all things. He exists in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. He is totally loving and completely holy.

03
Salvation through Jesus

Sin separated each of us from God and His true purpose for our lives. However, if we believe in our hearts and confess with our mouths that Jesus Christ is Lord, we have forgiveness for sin — past, present and future — and salvation unto eternal life. (Romans 3:23; Romans 10:9)

04
The Lord Jesus Christ

Jesus Christ, as both God and man, is the only One who can reconcile us to God our Father. He lived a sinless and exemplary life, died on the cross in our place, and rose again to prove His victory over Sin and Death.

05
New Birth & Repentance

In order to receive forgiveness and the new birth, we must repent of our sins, believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and submit to His will for our lives.

06
Water Baptism & the Holy Spirit

To live the holy and fruitful lives that God intends for us, we need to be baptised in water by full immersion and filled with the Holy Spirit — who enables us to use spiritual gifts including speaking in tongues, prophecy and healing.

07
The Church

We believe in the power and significance of the Church and the necessity of believers to meet regularly together for fellowship, prayer and the breaking of bread. (Hebrews 10:23–25)

08
God's Purpose for Each of Us

God has individually equipped each of us so that we can successfully achieve His purpose for our lives — to worship God, fulfil our role in the Body of Christ, and serve the community in which we live.

09
Healing & Restoration

God wants to heal, restore and transform all of humanity so that all may live healthy and blessed lives and help others more effectively. It is not God's will that any should perish. (2 Peter 3:9)

10
Eternal Destination

Our eternal destination — Heaven or hell — is determined by an appropriate response to the Lord Jesus Christ and His free gift of Salvation for all.

11
The Return of Christ

The Lord Jesus Christ is coming back again as He promised. There will be signs signalling His return as written in the Scriptures of the Bible, and we believe these are the last days. (Isaiah 55:6–7)
