Redwood Glen
At Redwood Glen, we want people to seek, experience and fully know Jesus. We believe that He is the hope of the world. We understand that for many, the basic human needs of food, shelter, and a sense of belonging must be met to embrace this hope. By living in an intentional community that fosters perseverance, honesty, and strong character, we can create a safe space where change is possible and hope in Jesus can be found. We value the discovery found in play, adventure, and an affinity for nature, all as a means to know the God of creation.

The Salvation Army's Statement of Doctrines
-
We believe that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments were given by inspiration of God and that they only constitute the Divine rule of the Christian faith and practice.
-
We believe that there is only one God who is infinitely perfect, the Creator, Preserver and Governor of all things, and who is the only proper object of religious worship.
-
We believe that there are three persons in the Godhead, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, undivided in essence and coequal in power and glory.
-
We believe that in the person of Jesus Christ the Divine and human natures are united so that He is truly and properly God and truly and properly man.
-
We believe that our first parents were created in a state of innocence but by their disobedience they lost their purity and happiness and that in consequence of their fall all men have become sinners, totally depraved and as such are justly exposed to the wrath of God.
-
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ has by His suffering and death made atonement for the whole world so that whosoever will may be saved.
-
We believe that repentance toward God, faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, and regeneration by the Holy Spirit is necessary to salvation.
-
We believe that we are justified by grace through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ and that he that hath believed hath the witness in himself.
-
We believe that continuance in a state of salvation depends upon continued obedient faith in Christ.
-
We believe that it is the privilege of all believers to be “wholly sanctified” and that their “whole spirit and soul and body” may be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. (1 Thessalonians 5:23)
-
We believe in the immortality of the soul, in the resurrection of the body, in the general judgment at the end of the world, in the eternal happiness of the righteous and in the endless punishment of the wicked.
