At LifeSpring Tampa, our mission is to spread the message of love, hope and faith to all. We strive to create a community of believers who support each other in their spiritual journey. We are members of the Evangelical Episcopal Communion(EEC) in
the diocese of St. John the Beloved. LifeSpring is a convergence style worship experience that follows
in the tradition of Celtic Christianity and Anglicanism.
The Holy Scriptures
We believe the Bible, consisting of the Old and New Testaments, is the inspired, authoritative, and
infallible Word of God. It is the final authority in all matters of faith, doctrine, and practice, and reveals
God’s redemptive plan for humanity.
The Triune God
We believe in one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. God is the
Creator and Sustainer of all things, perfectly holy, loving, and just.
Jesus Christ
We believe in the full deity and humanity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, sinless life, atoning death on
the cross, bodily resurrection, ascension into heaven, and future return in glory. Through Him alone,
humanity is reconciled to God.
The Holy Spirit
We believe the Holy Spirit indwells, empowers, and transforms believers. The Spirit distributes gifts for
the building up of the Church and continues to work actively today, bringing conviction, guidance,
healing, and renewal.
Salvation
We believe salvation is by grace alone through faith alone in Jesus Christ. All people are separated from
God by sin and are in need of redemption. Through repentance and faith, believers are forgiven,
justified, and made new.
The Church
We believe the Church is the Body of Christ, composed of all believers, called to worship God, grow in
faith, and participate in His mission. The Church exists both as a universal body and in local
congregations like LifeSpring Community Church.
The Sacraments (Ordinances)
We practice Baptism and the Lord’s Supper as sacred acts instituted by Christ. These are means of grace
through which believers encounter God’s presence, remember Christ’s work, and proclaim the gospel.
Convergence Worship
We believe worship is a holistic response to God that draws from the richness of the historic Church, the
vitality of evangelical faith, and the dynamic work of the Holy Spirit.
Our worship includes:
- Liturgical elements such as Scripture readings, prayers, and the church calendar
- Evangelical expression centered on preaching, teaching, and personal faith in Christ
- Charismatic openness to the gifts and movement of the Holy Spirit
We seek a balanced, Spirit-led worship that is both rooted and alive, reverent and expectant.
Christian Living
We believe believers are called to live lives of holiness, love, and service, empowered by the Holy Spirit.
This includes pursuing justice, caring for others, and sharing the gospel in word and action.
The Return of Christ and Eternal Hope
We believe in the personal and visible return of Jesus Christ, the resurrection of the dead, and the final judgment. Believers will enjoy eternal life with God, while those who reject Him will face eternal
separation.
