Christ Church—Radford is an elder-led congregation located in the New River Valley of Virginia. God has been gracious to remind us that the fields are white unto harvest not only here in Southwest Virginia, but around the globe as well. Christ Church has the privilege of working with HeartCry Missionary Society in its efforts to see the nations redeemed. A significant effort is also aimed at helping families and church leaders rethink the cultural approaches in American Christianity.
We aim at a biblically Christ-centered Christian life. Such an aim can only be reached by giving careful attention to the centrality of Christ in three areas: doctrine, worship, and lifestyle.
In doctrine, God’s unsolicited and unearned love is seen as the cause of salvation. The glory of His great Being is the ultimate end of salvation. And He is everything in between!
In corporate worship there is a joyful seriousness in which prayer, song, reading, and sermon all unite to aid God’s people to see and reflect the worth of God. God’s preferences, as stated in Scripture, are the guide through the many choices concerning ‘worship styles’, rather than man’s.
In lifestyle, the glory of God is the aim of all the little choices, as well as the large ones. Personal growth in Christ-likeness is the goal. Christ Church labors to help its members move toward maturity in Christ in each of these areas which make up a God-Centered church.
