Our Mission
What we mean when we say…
“…to glorify
our God and Savior
Jesus Christ…”
At Covenant Grace Church, we believe that our Triune God is worthy of all honor, glory, and praise. As the Scriptures abundantly declare, it is both through God and for God that all things exist. For this reason, we desire that every aspect of our ministry be done for the worship and exaltation of our God and Savior Jesus Christ.
“…by being a
maturing community
of believers…”
We believe that the Christian life is not designed to be lived in either stagnancy or isolation. God has graciously chosen and called his children to be united together as one unified and growing body in Christ. We are deeply dedicated to cultivating authentic, Christ-centered, and spiritually nourishing relationships within our spiritual family as we each encourage one another toward Christian maturity.
“…submitting
to the Scriptures…”
We believe that the Bible is the very Word of the one true God. As God’s holy and perfect Word, the Scriptures are our ultimate authority, foundation, and guide. In all matters of faith and life, we endeavor to live in joyful submission to the entire counsel of God.
“…resting in grace…”
We acknowledge that we are all broken sinners who deserve only God’s wrath, and yet we find rest for our souls knowing that because of God’s sovereign grace to us in Jesus Christ, we will only ever know his mercy. As blood-bought children of God, saved by grace alone, we undertake all of the activities of the Christian life with the assurance that God’s love for us is not based on our performance and can neither be earned nor lost by our effort.
“…growing in faith…”
We believe that God strengthens and grows his redeemed children by renewing their minds in truth through the faithful understanding of his Word. This is why Christ-centered, expositional teaching and preaching are at the center of all of the ministries of our Church. It is our desire to encourage and fortify the faith of God’s people by providing regular opportunities for discipleship in the faith.
“…serving
in love"…”
We believe that Christian love is sincere faith in action. A true knowledge of God always results in an active and visible love for God and others in our lives. We believe that all Christians have been given unique gifts meant to bless both the body of Christ which they call home, and the local community in which they have been placed. We encourage the members of our body to actively participate in the life of the ministries of our church by sacrificially loving and serving others just as they have been sacrificially loved and served by God.
“…and proclaiming the gospel to the world.”
We believe that the gospel of Jesus Christ is the one and only true hope for this world. We desire to be a church that is raising up and equipping men, women, and children who are eager to proclaim the good news of God’s saving grace among both their neighbors and the nations—whenever, wherever, and to whomever God calls. While we know that God does not need us to accomplish his purposes, we are humbled and thankful to be a part of God’s glorious and eternal kingdom going forth in this world.
Simply put, we want to be a church who’s lives are continually proclaiming…
Until Kingdom come…
Our Story
At the heart of the genesis of this church was a deep desire to worship our God together. In 2009, God providentially drew a group of redeemed mavericks, outcasts, and sinners to begin a non-denominational church in north Greensboro. Although diverse, we shared a common love for our God and Savior Jesus Christ, a commitment to live in submission to His inspired word, a desire for authentic fellowship with like-minded believers, and a heart to serve and share the gospel with our local community.
From our initial meetings in believers’ homes, to our present location where we gather in worship today, we have always desired to glorify God in all of our endeavors. Through each leg of the journey, God has been faithful to direct our steps. Our church’s continued spiritual growth over the years, ultimately led us to join the Reformed tradition of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) in 2017. We desired to be part of a larger, united community of believers, in order that by working together, we might have an even greater impact in the advancement of God’s kingdom as we help spread the gospel to every corner of this world.
As we continue to grow and welcome new brothers and sisters in Christ into our family of believers today, God continues to guide and bless our congregation. His faithfulness is everlasting! May all honor and glory be his alone!
