» What We Believe

Peace Community Church is a congregation of the Christian Reformed Church in North America.

PCC’S Mission (A.C.T.S.)

  • A – Adore our God (This is about Loving God)

  • C – Care for our Neighbors (This is about Loving our Neighbors)

  • T – Train Followers for Christ (This is about Making Disciples)

  • S – Share the Gospel (This is about being Witnesses in our world of Jesus Christ our Savior)

Our worldview:

CREATION. We live in a created world. God made it and he made it well. There is beauty in our world and we need not fear or flee it. We can affirm the goodness of creation and participate in making our world better. Our world belongs to God, therefore it also belongs to us. Not only are we stewards of God’s good creation, we’re also heirs.

FALL. We live in a fallen world. There is pain and brokenness and evil in our world. All things are fallen and all things have been bent away from good. Because of this we are not surprised by all that is wrong in the world. We know God’s heart is grieved and we share in his sorrow, all the more so because of our culpability in the fall.

REDEMPTION. We live in a loved world. God has not abandoned our world because of its fall. God has not abandoned us because of our rebellion against him. Instead, God did something quite unexpected. He redoubled his overtures toward our world. Knowing that we could never pay for our sins, he sent his Son to pay the price for us.

As God’s people we believe:

  • The Bible to be God’s inspired and infallible Word and the only rule for faith and practice.
  • In the triune God who has revealed himself as one God in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
  • That all persons are sinners and cannot be restored in fellowship with God through any power of their own.
  • That God in love sent his only Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross for our sins; that Jesus rose from the dead; that he is our intercessor with the Father; and that he will return visible on the Last Day as the judge of all people.
  • That God accepts all who repent of their sins; who believe that the redemptive work of Christ is the only basis for their salvation; and who embrace Jesus Christ as Lord of their lives.
