We believe the Bible is the written word of God, inspired by the Holy Spirit and without error in the original manuscripts. The Bible is the revelation of God’s truth and is infallible and authoritative in all matters of faith and practice.

We believe in the Holy Trinity. There is one God, who exists eternally in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

We believe that all are sinners and totally unable to save themselves from God’s displeasure, except by His mercy.

We believe that salvation is by God alone, as He sovereignly chooses those He will save. We believe His choice is based on His grace, not on any human individual merit, or foreseen faith.

We believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, who through His perfect life and sacrificial death atoned for the sins of all who will trust in Him, alone, for salvation.

We believe that God is gracious and faithful to His people not simply as individuals but as families in successive generations according to His Covenant promises.

We believe that the Holy Spirit indwells God’s people and gives them the strength and wisdom to trust Christ and follow Him.

We believe that Jesus will return, bodily and visibly, to judge all mankind and to receive His people unto Himself.

We believe that all aspects of our lives are to be lived to the glory of God under the Lordship of Jesus Christ.Read Christ

We are Biblically Driven: We are a joyful church believing Scripture to be our only rule for faith and life. We see ourselves as part of God’s people together with all those who are saved by grace through faith in Christ alone.

We are Christ-Centered: We are a transparent church of people who have been given new identities in Christ Jesus. We recognize that all people are broken in sin and in need of renewal. The good news about Christ and His death and resurrection offers us hope for this life and the next.

We have a Heart for Reaching: We long to be a welcoming church for anyone seeking a safe place to be challenged by and work through the claims of Christ. We partner with existing churches and plant new ones in order to fulfill the Great Commission in our community, our nation, and our world.

We have a Heart for Discipling: We long to be a relational church, encouraging our people to grow in grace. Through worship, sacraments, prayer, bible study, and fellowship we deal in the struggles of this life together. We taste the joy of Heaven together. We face our difficulties and fears together. We love our people, not our programs.

We have a Heart for Serving: We long to be a merciful church, humbly and sacrificially promoting the peace and health of our people and our community.

Here at CPC, we believe that corporate worship should engage both the head and the heart. As God’s people, our interests should not lie only in learning about God, but in experiencing His all-surpassing love and grace as well. We serve a God who works powerfully through both the intellect and the emotion and we would be remiss if we did not give opportunity in our time of worship for these same two faculties to be engaged.

CPC attempts to offer a truly “blended” worship style. We seek to pull God-honoring elements from both ancient hymnody and modern praise, corporate creeds and contemporary quotations, classical liturgy and grass roots themes. We believe the church should seek to keep its face toward the future while holding on to the time-tested elements of orthodox historical Christian worship – a blended offering from saints both past and present. Although personal preferences are always present, we hope that in every element of our worship, each Sunday, you will be impacted anew in head and heart with a sense of awe in the Gospel of God’s grace.
