HOPE
Life seems to be constantly changing - jobs, schools, relationships, home, marriage and family. In a world where we can’t count on much, we long for something...someone we can count on. Northcliffe doesn’t have all the answers to life’s problems...but we know Who does!

FAITH
We all need a faith that can handle life’s tough questions and tough times. We believe there is a faith that meets every challenge life may bring your way - faith that can make a difference when you experience disappointments and fear, or even when you face death.

Every Sunday, through the music and the message, we point people to the One Who is always there and Who always cares.
