Our Values

General

Everyone joining Christ Community Church of Plainfield through membership embraces the mission and vision statements.

In all we do, we will aim for excellence and trust the Holy Spirit to provide His intended results.

Prayer

We believe:

• prayer is not the prelude to, but the first part of ministry.

• prayer should be promoted in all aspects of life

• our outreach and discipleship efforts are surrounded with intercessory prayer.

Evangelism

We believe the church's primary and continual calling is to draw people to Jesus Christ and then help them mature in that relationship.

Relationships

We believe friendships/relationships provide the most effective and natural setting to share one's faith and communicate the message about Jesus Christ.

Education / Discipleship

We believe Christians should continually be exercising their faith and maturing.

To promote ongoing Christian growth, each member should:

• Attend worship regularly

• Participate in a small group regularly

• Actively pursue opportunities to reach people for Jesus Christ

• Get involved in a church ministry

• Contribute financially to the church

Worship

We believe that worship should glorify God, with special attention given to celebrating His grace and showing people how to live and thrive as thankful recipients of that grace.

Worship is primarily for the believer, but will have high "seeker-sensitivity." Emphasis will be placed on relevance and application in preaching, and generally on a contemporary and creative style, with some traditional elements.

Reformed

We believe that ministry should be culturally relevant without biblical compromise.

We will promote our Reformed theological convictions and apply them to the current situation.
