What We Believe
Shepherd of the Hills Evangelical
Lutheran Church was organized in 1974 so that with the Gospel of Jesus Christ it
might strengthen the faith of its members and reach out into the community and
the world. To carry out this purpose we believe and teach –
 | that the Bible is the infallible Word of God and the only foundation
for Christian faith and life |
 | that the Lord God revealed in the Bible, the Father, the Son, and the
Holy Spirit, is the true and living God; |
 | that all people have sinned against His holy will, fall short of His
glory, and therefore deserve to be condemned eternally; |
 | that Jesus Christ came into the world to deliver all people from the
guilt and power of sin and that He lived and died and rose again as the
perfect and only Substitute; |
 | that through faith created by the Holy Spirit the benefits of Christ’s
work are received personally; |
 | that on the last day Jesus will return to judge the living and the dead
and will take all those who trust in Him into eternal life. |
We join in that confession with over 1200 congregations of the Wisconsin
Evangelical Lutheran Synod and with them carry on a world-wide ministry.
