NRVCC VISION & VALUES
The Vision
Our vision is to be a culturally relevant church that enables individuals to
become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ.
We will realize this vision by providing: a loving and accepting environment,
celebration of the arts through worship, accurate and practical Bible teaching
and preaching, opportunities for significant relationships, and ministries that
meet the heart-felt needs of people. As we commit ourselves to God and to His
vision we will see non-Christians come into a personal, dynamic relationship
with Jesus Christ and Christians grow to full maturity in Him.
Our Core Values
These values unify our efforts and define our distinctives.

- We believe that people experience life-change best in small groups.
- We believe that those who follow Christ should hunger for continuous growth so that they can become Christ-like in their character.

- We believe that churches should be led by those with leadership gifts.
- We believe that excellence honors God and inspires people.
- We believe that full devotion to Christ and His cause is normal.
