We Believe
1. In the Bible which is the infalible word of God
2. In the triune God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit
3. That Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God who was crucified, buried, and 3 days later raised from the dead and is today at the right hand of the Father interceding on our behalf.
4. That all have sinned and come short of the glory of God and that repentance is commanded of God for all, and necessary for forgiveness of sin.
5. In water baptism by immersion in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
6. In the baptism of the Holy Spirit, with the evidence of speaking in tongues.
7. In divine healing
8. In the Lord’s Supper
9. In the second coming of Jesus Christ
10. That God is no respecter of people he loves us all.
At Destiny Center, we value Christ-centered living, bold faith, and walking in divine purpose. We honor God and one another, serve with excellence, give generously, and empower people to lead, grow, and impact the world for His glory.
We believe the Bible is God’s infallible Word and the foundation of our faith. We believe in one true God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—and that Jesus Christ died, rose again, and offers salvation to all. We believe in repentance, water baptism, the Holy Spirit, divine healing, and the return of Christ. We believe God loves all people and calls us to live by faith, love, and truth.

comfortable. You’ll find a
relaxed, non-judgmental

gatherings are designed to
create an atmosphere that

format that is relevant to their age group.
6. DO YOU HAVE A MID-
WEEK WORSHIP
GATHERING?
Currently, we do not offer a
mid-week worship
gathering. Rather, we place
high value on our life-
impacting small group
gatherings called that meet
all across the metro Atlanta
area during the week. We
believe that God's design
for spiritual growth is best
realized in the context of
community, and to this end,
we are very intentional
about encouraging small-
group gatherings and
organic relationship
building.
7. WHAT IS A SMALL
GROUP AND HOW CAN I
JOIN ONE?
A small group is an intimate
recurring gathering of
believers who meet at a
designated location, usually
a home, for fellowship, food,
prayer, worship, and
meaningful discussions
about life and biblical
teachings. Small groups are
designed to foster spiritual
growth and strong
relationships. Because we
understand the importance
and impact of community,
