“CCC is where I've seen genuine, loving, humble sinners seeking their Savior's mercy and extending the grace He shows them. It's a place where joy abounds yet tears are understood.”

- actual quote from someone who is checking out CCC

At first glance, ChristCommunity Church will look a lot like many other churches. Worship, kids activities, small groups - all the 'things' you'd expect to see. But the attitudes and motives behind these things may be very different. Listed below are the eight core values that make ChristCommunitya new and refreshing church family.

1. sincere humility - Sin and struggle are daily realities for all of us. Since no one has arrived, we will be known as a community of needy people bringing our daily needs to our Savior so we can explore and enjoy His solutions.

2. Good News of God’s Grace [!] - In the Bible, God offers Good News to sinners. His goodness, love and justice, seen in the life and Death of Jesus, draws us into deeper relationship with Him, motivates us to follow and serve Him and gives us hope for the future.

We are much worse than we know, but God's Grace is much more than we can imagine!

3. individuals - We will appreciate individuals for who God has made each person to be and seek to understand their unique past, present and future. No cookie cutters or simplistic cliches.

4. real relationships - God has initiated a loving relationship with us; therefore we glorify Him through biblical personal relationships, small groups and a deeply caring community that resembles a large extended family.

5. integrity - In our relationships, we encourage honesty about our struggles, questions and failures; and gratitude for the victories and growth God has given.

6. personal callings - We all should enjoy the satisfaction and fulfillment of a meaningful part in the Father’s family business. Ministry belongs in the hands of all of God’s people. God has called and equipped each of us to minister to others.

7. future-minded - The Good News of God’s Abundant Life is just as relevant to modern people and cultures as it was when it was delivered to people in history; therefore, we seek to communicate this good news to “real” people in the “real“ world. We will invest in things that will leave a lasting impact: our families and daughter churches.

8. diversity - God’s creativity has created not only different individuals but also different cultures, each displays His glory in a special way and helps us grow. In Revelation 5:9 we see how grace draws all cultures together.
