Our Faith
At Vox, we seek a generous place in which to follow Jesus in good conscience and integrity.
C.S. Lewis wrote about “mere Christianity” and what he called a commitment to “deep church” – that is, that which has been believed in all places at all times by all Christians. This means we remain committed to the central tenets of the historic, orthodox Christian tradition while leaving room for civil disagreement on other matters. Examples of summaries of the Christian faith are found in places like the Apostles Creed (ca. ad 215), and even earlier in I Corinthians 15.
