Why the name "C3"?

Christ

"He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together." Colossians 1 verses 15-17

This is what the Bible says about Christ - not just a humble carpenter then!

ImageCommunity

Its good to be together - community is a good thing and a God thing!
Go to the links to find out how we do this in; cell groups, creativity groups and celebration.

"Jesus presents us with a dream (embodied in the group image “Kingdom of God”) that is irreducibly communal, familial and social. It is not just a dream of more and better individual Christians standing like isolated statues in a museum. It is a dream of a community vibrant with life, pulsating with forgiveness, loud with celebration, fruitful in mission… a substantial city whose streets bustle with life, whose buildings echo with praise, a city aglow with the glory of community."  Brian McLaren


Creativity

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. .... God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. Genesis 1 verses 1 and 31.

The first and the last verses of the first chapter in the Bible. God created everything and he enjoyed it! When you read the very first chapter of the Bible it could almost describe someone painting a picture or writing a poem - its as if God was doing what he liked to do best - making things, creating! We believe that when people are being creative, they reflect the very nature of God himself. We are made like him in this respect, and we are made to be creative.
