About Us Why the name "Sovereign Grace"? The word Sovereign means supreme ruler. At Sovereign Grace we believe that God has supreme authority over all his creation including man's salvation which he provides to us by grace through the death and resurrection of his Son, Jesus Christ. Why the name "Orthodox" The "ortho" in orthodox comes from the Greek word for "straight." The "dox" comes from the Greek term for "thinking." At Sovereign Grace you will find straight preaching and teaching of the word of God. Why "Presbyterian"? We believe that the Bible calls men of wisdom and experience (i.e., elders) to exercise oversight of God's people in the local church. "Presbyterian" is derived from the Greek word meaning "elder." The members of Sovereign Grace recognize that our elders represent Christ to the body. | top | printer-friendly | |
