At The Foundry, we are more than just a church in Burke, Virginia. We are a community of believers dedicated to helping others forge a lifelong reliance on God.
Through our biblical teaching, we strive to provide practical insights and inspiration for life's journey. Our pastors and teachers are committed to delivering messages that are grounded in God's Word and applicable to modern-day living.
These are the things that define our culture at The Foundry. When you walk into our church there are things that you can feel because of who we are and what we are.
These are essential truths. These things don't change at The Foundry. This is what we believe, and it's at the core of our mission and values.
We believe that there is one God eternally existing in three persons Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. He is the Creator of all things.
Genesis 1:1; John 1:1; Matthew 3:16-17; 2 Corinthians 13:14
We believe that Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God, who died for our sins and was resurrected from the dead. We believe in Jesus' virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His suffering and literal death, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, His coming return to earth, and He will reign forever as King of kings and Lord of lords.
Isaiah 53; John 3:16; I Corinthians 15:1-8; I Thessalonians 4:13-18
We believe the Holy Spirit is an active and operative part of the triune God, who convicts the world in regard to sin, righteousness, and judgment, and who indwells in every Christian, gifting them for service in the church and enabling them to live a godly life.
John 14:16-20, 26-27; 16:7-16; Romans 12:4-8; I Corinthians 12:1- 11, Acts 2:38; Ephesians 1:13-14
We believe that man, created by God, willfully sinned and as a result, is lost and without hope apart from Jesus Christ.
We believe that salvation is by grace, through faith, in baptism, for good works.
Ephesians 2:8-10, Colossians 2:12
We believe that the Biblical pattern to receive God's free gift of salvation is to hear the gospel. Believe in Jesus as God's Son and Savior of the world, repent of personal sin, confess Christ publicly, be baptized, and remain faithful to the end.
Romans 10:9, Acts 2:36-38, Mark 16:16, Mark 13:13, Ephesians 2:8-9, Colossians 2:6, John 3:16
We believe that death seals the eternal destiny of each person. When Jesus returns He will pronounce the eternal fate of each individual, both living and dead, either to eternal life in heaven or eternal separation from God in hell.
John 5:28-29; 2 Corinthians 4:14, Matthew 10:28, 1 Corinthians 15:51-53
We believe that the Church is the body and bride of Jesus on earth, founded on the Day of Pentecost, consisting of all Christians everywhere.
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God and the final authority for all matters of faith and life.
