Since its inception in 1986, Community Bible
Church has existed for three purposes: to worship and glorify God,
to equip believers for ministry, and to share the
Good News of Jesus Christ with others.
FIRST, this fellowship of believers gathers
to worship and glorify God. In all we do, we seek to exalt our
Lord and live a life that pleases Him. We desire
to be fully dependent upon Him, as He leads us to a mature faith, Godly love,
and Christ-like character. Central to that process of growth is having a
strong
foundation on the Word of God. Community Bible Church is a place where the
Bible is preached as the final authority for our lives. As our motto says,
we want to be a "People of the Word, with a heart for the world."
SECOND, this fellowship of believers strives
to equip one another for ministry--for active service in God's
work. As we discover and utilize our spiritual gifts,
and as we discern the unique ways God has for each of us to serve the Body
of Christ, we are strengthened both individually and corporately.
THIRD,
this fellowship of believers takes the initiative to share the
message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ with the world. Community
Bible Church has
a deep compassion for those who don't know Christ. We stand behind our
missionaries on the field, and we seek to responsibly reach out to our
own neighborhoods
as well. Both in our words and in our conduct, we desire to proclaim
the risen
Christ, who alone is Savior.
