Getting to The Waterloo Memorial Recreation Complex
Purpose:
Overflow is a large Christian event for students (ages 12-24) from across denominations. The event exists to impact this generation with the powerful message of Jesus Christ through worship, biblical communication and the arts.
Theme:
We have been transformed by the power of God. We have heard his voice and his promises. We have seen his faithfulness. Why then do we retreat back to the empty and stagnant?
We are tired of living the ordinary. Tired of consenting to the predictable. Tired of accommodating the mundane. We want something revolutionary. We want life abundantly.
We must take a stand. We must live for more. We must be changed. Make us NEW.
Ezekiel 36:26
I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.
Statement of Beliefs:
We believe...
- The Holy Scriptures to be the divinely inbreathed, infallible, inherent, and authoritative Word of God.
That there is one God, eternally existent in the Persons of the Holy Trinity.
- In the virgin birth of the Lord Jesus Christ, His deity, His sinless humanity and perfect life, the eternal all-sufficiency of His atoning death, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the Father's right hand and His personal coming again at His second advent.
- That justification is a judicial act of God on the believer's behalf solely on the merits of Christ, and that regeneration by the power of the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for personal salvation.
- In Christ's Lordship of the Church, the observance of the ordinances of the Christian baptism by immersion for believers and the Lord's supper.
- In the eternal blessedness of the redeemed in heaven and the eternal doom of the unregenerate in the lake of fire.
