About

WHO WE ARE

Faith Tampa Bay was birthed out of idea spawned from the Luis Palau Festival held in Tampa in 2007.  Since then God has continued to birth new vision and direction encouraging us to reach out to our city in new ways.

WHY

We are looking to live out the Love of Christ with NO strings attached.  Christ loved first & taught later.  Our goal is to enable the body to be the body.  By partnering with local businesses, churches and groups, we want to help meet the needs and fill gaps by supporting our local school system.  We simply get to bridge the gap between the principals/staff needs and the resources/workers.

STATEMENT OF FAITH

The Holy Scriptures — We believe the Bible to be the inspired authoritative Word of God.

The Godhead — We believe that there is one God as three co-equal and co-eternal persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

The Deity, work and return of Jesus Christ — We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His substitutionary atonement, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His physical return in power and glory.

Salvation — We believe that salvation is a gift of God in grace and is received by man through personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

Christian Walk — We believe that we are called by a holy calling, to walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit, and so to live in the power of the indwelling Spirit. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit who enables a Christian to live a godly life serving Him and others.

Christian Service — We believe one’s whole life should reflect Christian service whether in business or vocational ministry. We believe that God calls us to work together to bring Him glory and honor in all that we say and do.
