What Are the 3-C Practices?

       We...are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing                 glory, which comes from the Lord... (2 Corinthians 3:13).

The goal of the Christian journey is to become more like Christ.  The Bible tells us that each day God's Holy Spirit is at work to reproduce in us the character of Jesus. 

While this is a supernatural process, it doesn't happen automatically.  it occurs as we cooperate with the Spirit.  The 3-C Practices describe how we do this:

• Communion:  Walking with Christ.  This includes the study of God's Word, prayer, and other disciplines.
• Community:   Loving one another.  This involves Worship, connecting with others in a house church or small group, and sacrificially using our time, talent, and treasure in service to others. . 
• Calling:  Impacting the world.  We do this through:
  • Witness:  walking alongside of at least one other person in their journey toward faith in God.
  • Compassion and justice:  loving God and others both in my circle of influence and around the world
  • Vocation:  serving God through my work.​​
