Core Values & Beliefs

Our Purpose:

The purpose of Community Bible Church is to love God: Loving and Serving each other, Growing in faith and Engaging our community with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Our Mission

We believe that God has called the body of believers, known as Community Bible Church, to partner with Him in leading people outside and inside our doors into a growing relationship with His Son Jesus Christ. This means taking people where they are and moving them to where they need to be in Christ. Therefore, everything we do at CBC will be anchored in (or measured against) this mission.

Our new building will help create spaces for programs to be reaching out, engaging, and serving children, youth, college students, families, and so many more. We want to be living out our purpose statement every day with all we do. We want to be people living as Jesus did, which means busting out our doors and be out on the streets in our community and building relationships with those around us.
