Pastor Eugene Moore is the founder and pastor of Guiding Light Church. The ministry began in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 2022, and in May 2023, God led Pastor Eugene and his wife, ShaRhonda, to relocate to Columbus, Ohio. Through prayer, faith, and God’s direction, Guiding Light Church was planted in Groveport, Ohio, and launched the church March of 2025, with a heart to guide people to Christ, strengthen families, and serve the community.

Pastor Eugene and First Lady ShaRhonda Moore serve together with a shared passion for ministry, family, and helping others grow in their relationship with God. They are blessed with a blended family of six children—three sons and three daughters—with their youngest being 14 years old.

Together, Pastor Eugene and ShaRhonda remain committed to following God’s direction, building His Kingdom, and leading Guiding Light Church with faith, love, and a heart for people.

Statement of Beliefs

What we believe.

Rooted in Scripture, the supreme and final authority in all matters of faith and life.

About the Bible

We believe that the Bible is the Word of God, fully inspired and without error in the original manuscripts, written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and that it has supreme and final authority in all matters of faith and life.

2 Tim. 3:16; 2 Pt. 1:20, 21; Mk. 13:31; Jn. 8:31, 32; Jn. 20:31; Acts 20:32

About the Trinity

We believe that there is one living and true God, eternally existing in three persons; that these are equal in every divine perfection, and that they execute distinct but harmonious offices in the work of creation, providence, and redemption.

Gen. 1:1, 26; Jn. 1:1, 3; Matt. 28:19; Rom. 1:19, 20; Eph. 4:5, 6

About God the Father

We believe in God the Father, an infinite, personal spirit, perfect in holiness, wisdom, power, and love. We believe that He infallibly foreknows all that shall come to pass, that He concerns Himself mercifully in the affairs of men, that He hears and answers prayer, and that He saves from sin and spiritual death all who come to Him through Jesus Christ.

Lk. 10:21, 22; Matt. 23:9; Jn. 3:16, 6:27; Rom. 1:7; 1 Tim. 1:1, 2, 2:5, 6; 1 Pt. 1:3; Rev. 1:6

About Jesus Christ

We believe in Jesus Christ, God’s only begotten Son, eternally existing, conceived by the Holy Spirit. We believe in His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, and teachings. We believe in His substitutionary atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension into heaven, perpetual intercession for His people, and personal visible return to earth.

Matt. 1:18-25; Lk. 1:26-38; Jn. 1:1, 20-28; Rom. 8:46, 9:5; 2 Cor. 5:21; 1 Pt. 2:21-23; Jn. 20:30; Matt. 20:28; Eph. 1:4; Acts 1:11; Rom. 5:6-10; Heb. 7:25; 1 Tim. 3:16

About the Holy Spirit

We believe that the Holy Spirit is a divine person, equal with God the Father and God the Son. He came to convict the world of sin, righteousness, and judgement, and to regenerate, sanctify, and empower all who believe in Jesus Christ. We believe that the Holy Spirit indwells every believer in Christ, and that He is an abiding helper, teacher, and guide.

Jn. 14:16, 17, 26; 15:26, 27; Jn. 16:9-14; Rom. 8:9; 1 Cor. 3:16; 6:19; Gal. 5:22-26

About Salvation

We believe that man was created by God in His own image; that he sinned and thereby incurred physical, spiritual, and eternal death, which is separation from God; that as a consequence, all human beings are born with a sinful nature and are sinners by choice and therefore under condemnation. Man can never make up for his sin by self-improvement or good works. We believe that those who repent and trust Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior are regenerated by the Holy Spirit and become new creatures, delivered from condemnation and receive eternal life. Eternal life begins the moment one receives Jesus Christ into his life by faith.

Gen. 1:26; 5:2; Gen. 2:17; 3:19; Eccl. 2:11; Jn. 3:14; 5:24; Jn. 5:30; 7:13; 8:12; 10:26; Rom. 9:22; 2 Thess. 1:9; Rev. 19:3, 20; 20:10, 14, 15; 21:18; Ps. 51:7; Jer. 17:9; Js. 1:14; Rom. 3:19; Prov. 28:13; 1 Jn. 1:9; Jn. 3:16; Jn. 1:13; 2 Cor. 5:17; Rom. 8:1; Rom. 6:23; Eph. 2:8-9; Jn. 14:6; 1:12; Titus 3:5; Gal. 3:26; Rom. 5:1

About Eternal Security

We believe the security of our salvation rests upon the gift that God has given us in the death, burial, and resurrection of His Son, Jesus Christ. It is impossible to lose your salvation because it is maintained by the grace and power of God, not by the self-effort of the Christian. It is the sealing and sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit that gives us this security. There is a falling away of some believers, but if it persists, it shows that their faith was not genuine and they were not born of God.

Jn. 10:29-30; 2 Tim. 1:12; Heb. 7:25; 10:10-14; 1 Pt. 1:3-5; Rom. 8:38-39, 11:29; Eph. 1:13-14; 1 Jn. 2:19; Lk. 8:9-14

About Eternity

We believe man was created to exist forever. He will either exist eternally separated from God by sin, or in union with God through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally in union with Him is eternal life. Heaven and Hell are places of eternal existence.

Jn. 3:16; 1 Jn. 2:25; 5:11-13; Rom. 6:23; Rev. 20:15

About the Church

We believe in the local church, consisting of a company of believers in Jesus Christ, baptized on a credible profession of faith, and associated for worship, good works, and fellowship. We believe that God has laid upon the members of the local church the primary task of giving the gospel of Jesus Christ to a lost world.

Eph. 2:19-22; Col. 1:8; Eph. 5:19-21; Acts 2:42; Heb. 10:23-25

About Christian Maturity

We believe that a Christian should live for the glory of God and the well-being of his fellow men; that his conduct should be blameless before the world; that he should be a faithful steward of his possessions; and that he should seek to realize for himself and others the full stature of maturity in Christ.

1 Cor. 10:31; Rom. 12:13; Heb. 12:1-2; Jn. 14:15, 23-24; 2 Cor. 9:6-9; 1 Cor. 1:9-10

About Church Ordinances

We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ has committed two ordinances to the local church: Baptism and the Lord’s Supper. We believe that Christian Baptism is the immersion of the believer in water into the name of the triune God. We believe that these two ordinances should be observed and administered until the return of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Matt. 28:18-20; Rom. 6:3-5; 1 Cor. 11:23-26

About Last Things

We believe in the personal and visible return of the Lord Jesus Christ to earth and the establishment of His kingdom. We believe in the resurrection of the body, the final judgement, the eternal joy of the righteous and the endless suffering of the wicked.

Jn. 3:16; 1 Jn. 2:25; 5:11-13; Rom. 6:23; Rev. 20:15
