Membership

Membership is the mutual commitment between the believer and the local church to be united together in the goal of God’s mission in the world: to exalt Christ by making disciples both locally and globally. Believers commit to strive for a sanctified life in fellowship with the body, to serve the saints with their gifts, to seek and save the lost, and to submit to their shepherds. The church commits to mutual care among her members, to provide accountability for their commitment to the local church family, and to nurture and grow together to the glory of Christ.

Why Membership?

The New Testament teaches that believers are to be committed to a local church because this is what Jesus is building. Jesus wants believers to identify with the bride that He intensely loves and for whom He gave His life. They are to be vitally connected with the fellowship, ministry, and accountability of the local church.

Our Mission and Means

As CBC members, we exalt Christ by making disciples locally and globally. This discipleship is composed of:
  1. Engaging the Lost
  2. Evangelizing the Unbeliever
  3. Establishing them in the faith
  4. Equipping them for service

"And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ; until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ." - Ephesians 4:11-13
