A Higher Level of Investment in ECC

“The Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

Matthew 20: 28


The New Testament presents a picture of definable groups of people who, once committed to the Lord Jesus Christ, identified themselves and committed themselves to a particular local body (Acts 2:42-46; Romans 16:1; I Corinthians 1:2; II Corinthians 8:1; Philippians 1:1; Acts 11:26)

    Honor God by following Christ personally and passionately. 

    Your reputation is Christ’s reputation and the Church’s reputation.

Make a conscious effort to promote a healthy community by refusing to gossip or speak in a derogatory manner about others.
