We believe that real relational intimacy and deep spiritual growth occur best in the context of commitment with believing brothers and sisters in a local church. Christ saves sinners to become one body, one temple, one family that glorifies God and bears his image rightly. He doesn’t save us to join a voluntary association which makes us simply feel good about ourselves and which we can abandon when the tough work of relationship building confronts us. That’s consumerism, not Christianity.

By encouraging those looking to connect at CCM to journey with us into Covenant Partnership and by holding our Groups ministries for partners only, we hope to resist this cultural tendency and to foster instead the kind of community that truly follows the way of Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit, experiencing God’s renewal in all areas of our lives.
