Statement of Faith

At CMCA, we adhere to the principles outlined in The Lausanne Covenant

“…We believe the gospel is God’s good news for the whole world, and we are determined, by his grace, to obey Christ’s commission to proclaim it to all mankind and to make disciples of every nation. We desire, therefore, to affirm our faith and our resolve, and to make public our covenant.”—Excerpt from the Introduction to the Lausanne Covenant

“ It defined what it means to be evangelical, that is, what it means to have Scripture as final authority in what we believe and in how we live. It is a covenant with one another as brothers and sisters in Christ, and with God himself. The covenant form was chosen deliberately, as a solemn and public declaration to the world of the relationship between our faith and our lives.” Forward by S. Douglas Birdsall
