Regency Park Church of the Nazarene is part of a world-wide, interdependent, and growing community called the Church of the Nazarene. Founded in 1908 in Pilot Point, TX, the Church of the Nazarene today includes more than 2.5 million Christians in over 160 world areas.
What we believe
The Church of the Nazarene has published both an easy to read "Statement of Beliefs" as well as more detailed "Articles of Faith."
We believe that Christian "discipleship" is a journey of grace with Jesus as our guide and companion. Christian discipleship helps believers grow in the Lord Jesus Christ as they are equipped by His Holy Spirit, who resides within them, to overcome the pressures and trials of this present life and become more and more Christlike.
Why "Church of the Nazarene?"
The name "Church of the Nazarene" was chosen to signify our commitment to Jesus, who - even though he was God - was born as a helpless baby to a poor couple from a small town in Israel called "Nazareth." Nazareth was not well regarded by most Israelites of the time - it was almost a byword. However, Jesus chose to associate with those in need, those who weren't respected, and those who were hurting to demonstrate God's love to them. Like Him, we aspire to show compassion, kindness, and care for those in need today.
