God's church is beautiful and diverse. No two churches are the same; nor does God want them to be. At TCC, we understand this...that God not only makes each person unique, He makes each church unique. Below are the defining characteristics of The Crossing Church.
- All Believers Are Equally Essential to the Local Church (1 Peter 2:5)

- We Value Bi-Vocational Ministry As a Means Of Removing Obstacles to the Gospel (1 Cor 9:12)
- We Purse Deep Personal Relationships With Each Other (John 13:35)
- We Are a Thriving Community of Believers That Encourage One Another (Hebrews 10:24)
- We Prioritize Relational Outreach (1 Peter 4:8)
- Our Decisions Are Motivated by Scripture Through Faith
