Love

At FCC we commit to love the world around us–friends, family, neighbors, and enemies–with the sort of love with which God in Christ first loved us. Rather than waiting for seekers to come to us, we will seek out the vulnerable, the disillusioned, the lonely, the sick, and all those who are loved by God but who feel very far from that love. We will devote our time, our financial resources, our facilities, and our prayers toward the end of seeing God’s kingdom manifest in the lives of people in Erwin, East Tennessee, and the world. Our posture toward the lost will not be one of judgment but one of hospitality, welcoming them into our community and patiently shepherding them as they begin to encounter the life-changing gospel of Jesus Christ that God proclaims in our midst.
