Our Beliefs

Salt Ventures is a wholeheartedly Christian organization committed to demonstrating the Christian life and sharing the good news of Jesus Christ as God’s unique provision for forgiveness of sins and the one true savior of mankind.

There are thousands of Christian organizations around the world working faithfully to make disciples of all nations. Each one embodies a unique personality derived from historical connections, worship styles, theological commitments and other important traits. The spectrum of Christian community is so broad that sometimes it is difficult to recognize the family resemblance in all God’s children.

Taken together, these widespread efforts towards a common task demonstrate the essential unity of the Christian faith and its message of love and reconciliation for all people. Viewing them individually highlights the tremendous diversity of the church and its ability to reach out in countless creative ways to people in need of a savior.

Salt Ventures stands firmly in the tradition of biblical Christianity, confident that there is no greater task than that of sharing the good news of Jesus Christ and inviting others to follow him. We recognize the unity of all Christian churches and organizations with whom we share this great calling.

Salt Ventures embraces a set of core values which combine to form our organizational personality. We do not pretend that these make us better than anyone else; they are simply what make us who we are. May God be glorified as we live our lives for him.

Core Values

Holistic Witness

We endeavor to live lives worthy of our calling as Christians in our communities, at work and in our homes through everyday actions - small and large.

Servant Hearts

We look to serve the needs of others before our ourselves, but most importantly serve to put God’s will first.

Secular Spaces

We live set apart yet within the culture, integrating as much as possible into society with the hope to reach beyond the boundaries of the visible church.

Local Churches

We commit to active participation in the local church as God’s chosen instrument for worship, fellowship, encouragement and the personal growth of his people.

Humble Theology

We approach our ministry partnership with other denominations as brothers and sisters in Christ, standing firm in our beliefs, but listening and learning with humility.

Moldable and Adaptable

We understand Christ has made us unique and strive to be adaptable as a team to the changes in the field with our various gifts and talents.

Statement of Faith

We affirm the following beliefs:

  • We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.

  • We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

  • We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.

  • We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful people, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.

  • We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.

  • We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
