We seek to be a diverse community that reflects the beautiful makeup of Durham and lives out our commitment to justice and mercy for those on the margins of society. We long to be a community that reflects unity and diversity across race, class, and generations.
You are accepted as you are and have nothing to prove. That is the kind of rest you can find rest in Christ—and it comes before we can do anything else. We pursue rest through spiritual practices and through slowed-down spirituality, emotionally healthy vulnerability, and in community.
God has given each of us unique gifts and abilities as we live for the renewal of all things in the city for the world. There are many ways to serve at Christ Central—whether you’re serving through a volunteer role like ushering, in the city, or through global missions, there’s a place for you to be a part of gospel renewal.
We want to see individual lives changed and community formed by believing the gospel, belonging to community, and becoming more like Christ.
We want to help cultivate flourishing for all people through championing mercy and pursuing justice for individuals and systems.
We want to be people who integrate our faith into our vocations, recreations, and creations.
