OUR CHURCH
IBC is a church that is all about real people, bringing real glory to a real God who is great and awesome! IBC is not about religion, or being religious. We are people just like you, with experiences and backgrounds just like yours. We are your neighbors, your co-workers, and the person you run into at the Post Office. No matter where life's journey has taken you, or where you are on that road, you will discover that IBC is a place where your own faith journey can find meaning and purpose.
THINGS WE'RE CONVINCED OF
God has spoken through His Word, the Bible. The Bible is His "road map" that takes us from where we are, all the way into His presence! The Bible gives us the perfect tool for living a God-pleasing life. It helps us know who He is and what He wants. It gives us direction for dating, marriage and raising kids. It gives hope to those who know the heartache of a divorce or the pain of loss. It talks about how to get along at work, school and home. It shows us how to live a life of purpose, with contentment, integrity and joy.
So important is the Word of God to us, that we include it in our name. We like to say that Idyllwild Bible Church is "Where life and the Bible meet." We are convinced that true joy in this life begins when we discover just how much the God of the Bible loves us and desires a relationship with us. He has provided a way for us to have an authentic personal relationship with Him through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ on the cross. What's more, Christ's resurrection guarantees that this relationship with God is possible. The Holy Spirit confirms these truths to the heart of anyone who is sincerely seeking to know God in a personal way. If our convictions are shared by you, (or perhaps new to you,) maybe IBC is the place you can pursue these truths for yourself. We'd love to share the pursuit with you!
