CBMC is founded on a set of simple yet profound Core Values. They are the guiding principles that direct our ministry activity. These are the non-negotiables which we consider to be of utmost importance.

Intimacy with Christ is paramount, and all that we do must emanate from our life in Christ and His life in ours.

We value the process of committed one-on-one relationships for evangelism and discipleship.



God calls us to work together in teams in order to multiply what He wants to accomplish through us.



The goal of the discipleship process is spiritual reproduction to the 3rd and 4th generations and beyond.

For further explanation, let's go through these again.

Preeminence of Christ: Intimacy with Christ is paramount; therefore we recognize that ministry flows through spiritual leaders who are devoted to Christ and to prayer. All that we do must emanate from our life in Christ and His life in ours. "Christ in you [is] the hope of glory. We proclaim him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ" Colossians 1:27-28.

Life-on-Life Relationships: We value the process of committed one-on-one relationships for evangelism and discipleship. Paul tells the church in 1 Thessalonians 2:8, "We were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God, but our lives as well, because you had become so dear to us."

Just as Paul shared his life with Timothy for the sake of the gospel, we believe in building relationships in order that we may share our lives with those in need, caring for them and being committed to them over time for the sake of the gospel.

Teams: God calls us to work together in teams in order to multiply what He wants to accomplish through us. Two or more people with an external focus compose a team whose emphasis is relationships and mission.

Our ministry is to the "whole man." One team we seek to help is the husband and wife. This needs to be a growing relationship to sustain a fruitful ministry. "Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work . . . a cord of three strands is not easily broken" (Ecclesiastes 4:9, 12).

Generational Spiritual Reproduction: The goal of the discipleship process is spiritual reproduction to the 3rd and 4th generations and beyond. Paul exhorts Timothy in 2 Timothy 2:2, "the things you have heard me say . . . entrust to reliable men who will also be qualified to teach others." We strive to fulfill the Lord's promise in Isaiah 60:22, "The least of you will become a thousand, the smallest a mighty nation. I am the Lord; in its time, I will do this swiftly."
