NCC Values

Spiritually Rooted

Our theology embraces questioning and a lived faith over belief in specific doctrines.  We revere Jesus’ teachings and life as a guidepost, also holding the teachings of many faith traditions as sacred.

Justice Driven

A central part of our mission revolves around justice work.  Involvement in immigration, LGBTQ+ issues, and racial justice is a core part of our values and how we live our faith.

NCC’s values are present within our walls and beyond.
