Core values are the fundamental beliefs of a person or organization. These core values are the guiding principles that dictate our behavior and action. Our core values are derived from Acts 2:42:
Acts 2:42 (NKJV)
42 And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers.
Doctrine
connecting our culture to Christ
TCOO is built upon the gospel of Jesus Christ and upon the teachings of his apostles and prophets as recorded in the bible. We are forever committed to studying his word daily, earnestly contending for the faith, evangelizing our world, speaking the truth in love, and remaining steadfast in the doctrine taught by Jesus and the apostles.
Fellowship
growing in grace
TCOO believes in the development of relationships within the church and connecting Omaha and the surrounding communities to Jesus Christ and the church. We are forever committed to both providing opportunities for life connections within the church body to making a difference in the community and the world.
Communion
serving Christ and our community
TCOO exists to know God in the power of His resurrection, and in the fellowship of His sufferings. We are forever committed to the sanctity of the bread and wine symbolizing the body and blood of Christ, remembering together as a church family, His sacrifice for our sin.
Prayer
leading by example
Prayer is a fundamental value in a relationship with God. TCOO is committed to being a daily house of prayer and to encouraging every believer to establish a consistent life of prayer. We are forever committed to daily prayer, learning and applying the principles of effectual fervent prayer that avails much, and walking daily in the power and wisdom daily prayer affords.
