Our Statement of Faith

We accept the Scriptures of the Old and New Testament to be the written Word of God. We believe in the divine inspiration, entire trustworthiness and final authority of the Bible in all matters of faith and practice.

We acknowledge:

  • The triune God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit (I John 5:7).

  • The incarnate Son: Jesus Christ, fully God, fully man (John 1:1-2,14).

  • The goodness and beauty of the world, created according to the Genesis account and sustained by the Word of God’s power (Genesis 1; Romans 3:22-23).

  • Salvation by grace received through faith in Jesus Christ, who alone, through His life, death and resurrection, redeems us from sin and reconciles us unto God and delivers us from hell (Ephesians 1:7,2:8-10; I Peter 1:18-19).

  • The essential unity of all believers, who together form one church, diverse in form and expression, of which Christ is the Head, who shall return for His church at the Father’s appointed time and shall be eternally secure in God’s heaven prepared for all believers (John 17; I Thessalonians 4:13-18).

  • The continuing ministry of God, the Holy Spirit, who empowers the worship, service and witness of God’s people in all their activities (John 14:16-18, 25-26).

  • Satan is the author of sin and cause of the fall; he is the open and declared enemy of God and man, and he shall be eternally punished in the lake of fire (Job 1:6-7; Isaiah 14:12-17; Matthew 4:2-11; Revelation 20:11).

 Philosophy of eduation

     Community Christian College offers a quality education equipping students for a life of service to Christ, the church and society, in the context of the Christian faith.  Thus, we believe it is essential for students to have some genuine understanding of basic areas of knowledge such as history, literature, the natural sciences, psychology, theology, and sociology.  These and other subjects are the “Liberal Arts.”  These traditional fields of learning focus on understanding: (1) the physical world, (2) what it means to be human, and (3) what it means for humanity to live together in society.  The Liberal Arts are studies which provide the basic knowledge and intellectual skills for critical thinking and lifelong learning.  To this end, the CCC curriculum has been designed.

      How may a liberal arts education fit into your plans?

      Four-year colleges and universities typically divide bachelor’s degree studies into two parts: (1) General Education requirements and (2) the student’s major.  A Major is a sequence of courses in one specific field, taken in the student’s junior and senior years (“upper division courses”).  These courses provide the student with specialized knowledge in a chosen field of study.  General education requires and provides the student with introductory courses in different fields of study in the freshman and sophomore years (“lower division courses”).

      Community Christian College’s Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts degree program is designed to provide the general education necessary to graduate with a bachelor’s degree from allied four-year colleges and universities.  We offer a two-year completion course of study.  This program is intended to satisfy the lower-division general education requirements at most four-year colleges and universities.  (Under Academics, see Transfer of Community Christian College Credits to Other Institutions, for important qualifications.)

      What are the distinctive features of Community Christian College?

·         Small classes on campus and online: approximately 30 or fewer students per class, providing a personal and nurturing setting for learning.

·         A highly trained and experienced faculty:  all instructors have, at minimum, eighteen units or Master’s Degrees in the subjects being taught.

·         Two-year curriculum: the College’s program of courses provides an excellent education while allowing maximum flexibility to transfer to four-year colleges and universities.
