JESUS · OUR FOUNDATION
Jesus and the way we love one another.
By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.— Jesus · John 13:35
For GCC, this is a reminder that relationships are not a tactic. The way we know, help, encourage and serve one another is part of the foundation.
AQUILA & PRISCILLA
Faith lived through relationship, work and hospitality.
Aquila and Priscilla offer a practical picture of Christian life where work, hospitality, relationships and shared faith were woven together.
Hospitality
Their home became a place of welcome, relationship and shared Christian life.
PAUL · CONNECTION ACROSS COMMUNITIES
Relationships that travelled beyond one Circle.
Paul travelled, partnered with people and connected Christian communities across cities and regions. GCC draws inspiration from this picture of people using relationships, work, hospitality and shared purpose to encourage others and serve their communities.
