What we stand on
Our four foundations.
We are a New Testament church — held together by the historic creeds the Church has confessed for 1,700 years, by the Word of God, and by the mandate God has given us.
01
The Faith Confessed
The Nicene Creed
The Church's response to the question "Who is Jesus?" — settled at Nicaea in 325 AD. We confess it because the Church has always confessed it.
"We believe in one God, the Father almighty…"
Read what we believe →02
The Faith Confessed
The Apostles' Creed
The oldest confession of the Christian faith — a baptismal creed used since the second century. The plumb-line of orthodox belief.
"I believe in God, the Father almighty…"
Read what we believe →03
The Final Authority
The Word of God
The Bible is the final authority on everything we teach, preach, and live. Scripture interprets scripture; the Spirit illuminates the Word.
"Thy word is a lamp unto my feet." Psalm 119:105
The Word of God →04
The Call on GCC
The Mandate
God's specific commission to GCC — built on Isaiah 60, Ephesians 4:11–13, Luke 4:18–19 and the empowering of the Holy Spirit. Our reason for being here.
"For the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry."
