Community Christian Church

The Bible is God's authoritative and accurate source for salvation and Christian living.

Goal: To develop a love and hunger for God’s Word in all of our people.

• We will make the bible the center of our presentation in all of our worship experiences.
• We will teach people how to study and apply the bible to their daily life so they can “feed themselves.”

Worship is the natural life expression of a Christ-Follower.

Goal: To provide opportunities and to encourage people to authentically and accurately worship God in both personal and corporate settings.

• We will thoughtfully arrange our Sunday worship in order to maximize participation and purposefully engage people in God-centered worship.
• We will instruct and encourage people in the basic forms of personal worship (including the classic spiritual disciplines).
• We will provide dynamic opportunities for a more expressive corporate moment (Engage the Spirit) than our Sunday worship experience.

Pursuing full devotion to Christ through a process of continuous growth is normal for every believer.

Goal: To raise up people that progress from believers to Christ-Followers in all aspects of their behavior (life).

• We will encourage a culture of growth depending on the transformational activity of the Holy Spirit.
• We will encourage an ongoing process of personal discipleship that is incarnational in nature.
• We will teach "radical impact" as a goal for all Christ-Followers.

We (the Church) will operate as a unified community of servants with men and women stewarding their spiritual gifts.

Goal: To build a corporate expression of the love, power and grace of Jesus Christ as we work together to reach and serve the world.

• We will work to create opportunities for people to be able to serve the world.
• We will provide “equipping” opportunities.
• We will create a culture of leadership development.
• We will, above all these, work to move in love and humility towards one another (Spiritual Family).

We will obey the Great Command to go into our world to make disciples of all men.

Goal: To evangelize Jacksonville and other parts of the world.

• We will encourage relational bridge building with unchurched people.
• We will use the Sunday morning moment to connect with unchurched people, without diluting biblical truth or other SCC values, in an attempt to bring them to a point of decision for Christ as Savior.
• We will encourage every Southpoint Community Church Christ-Follower to be “salt and light” in their world of influence.
• We will serve the needs of those that are hurting and hopeless in an effort to show these people the love of Christ.

The church has a stewardship to produce a culture in which young men and women (youth) can thrive and grow into all that God has created them for.

Goal: To produce an army of radical, passionate and holy Christ-Followers from the youth of this generation.

• We will teach and train parents the biblical pattern for raising children.
• We will encourage all adults to live lives that can be modeled after.
• We will work to incorporate a level of relevancy to this generation without sacrificing other values.
• We will provide opportunities for the youth to grow and develop relationships in a Christ-like atmosphere.
