Hi! Welcome to First Christian Church, an independent Christian church in the Restoration tradition. We are here to "Know Christ and make Him known." Our desire is that every person we come in contact withmight know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, becoming like him in every way. Paul gives us an example when he says to the Philippians: I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection of the dead. Philippians 3:10,11
Our desire is to grow every person up in Christ through Worthy Worship, Dynamic Discipleship and Selfless Service. John records the words of Jesus concerning worthy worship, writing: God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship him in spirit and in truth. Peter speaks to dynamic discipleship when he writes: ...grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever!(2 Peter 3:18) Jesus gives himself as an example of selfless service, saying: the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many. Matthew 20:28
If you desire to know Christ and to worship him and the Father, to grow in your knowledge of the Word of God, and to become a selfless servant of others, then this is the place for you. Here we will practice transformational living, through knowing Christ, intimately and personally. Jesus said: Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me... Matthew 11:28
Pastor Timothy McNerney

First Christian Church of Chula Vista is a "House of Prayer, where People Care, and Share Jesus Christ with Others." To do this we seek to transform the lives of those living in Chula Vista and the greater San Diego area by applying and modeling the teachings and lifestyles of Jesus Christ so that each person may submit to his Lordship and grow in grace and knowledge and become mature in Christ together with others who love Jesus. In seeking this transformation, we believe that Jesus does the transforming of the hearts and minds, but we must be the community he uses to apply the Word of God and teach others about Him, through our words and our actions.

Our Care Values At the center of every effective person, business, institution, and organization are certain core values that shape their goals, direct their decisions, and focus their energies. At First Christian Church we call these OUR CARE VALUES! Note that each of OUR CARE VALUES corresponds to one of God's Purposes for His Church with the exception of prayer which covers them all!

Community - "Developing a Caring Community in Christ" (see John 13:34,35)
Discipleship - "Teaching and Applying the Bible to Every Area of My Life." (see James 1:22)
Missions - "Sharing the Caring of Jesus,Locally and Globally"(Matthew 25:25,36,40)
Outreach - "Sharing Salvation with the Spiritually Homeless and Helpless" (Matthew 28:18-20)
Prayer - "Sharpening Our Spiritual Edge"(Matthew 7:7,8)Service - "Serving God and Others with Joy"

The EssentialsWe Believe
1. ABOUT GODGod is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. He has eternally existed in three personalities: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and are one God. Genesis 1:1, 26, 27; 3:22; Psalm 90:2; Matthew 28:19; 1Peter 1:2; II Corinthians 13:14
2. ABOUT JESUS CHRISTJesus Christ is the Son of God. He is co-equal with the Father. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all people by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to Heaven's glory and will return again someday to earth to reign as King of Kings, and Lord of Lords.
- Matthew 1:22, 23; Isaiah 9:6; John 1:1-5, 14:10-31; Hebrews 4:14,15; I Corinthians 15:3,4; Romans 1:3,4; Acts 1:9-11; I Timothy 6:14, 15; Titus 2:13.
3. ABOUT THE HOLY SPIRITThe Holy Spirit is co-equal with the Father and the Son of God. He is present in the world to make men aware of their need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. He gives every believer a spiritual gift when they are saved. As Christians we seek to live under His control daily.
II Corinthians 3:17; John 16:7-13; 14:16,17; Acts 1:8; I Corinthians 2:12; 3:16; Ephesians 1:13; Galatians 5:25; Ephesians 5:18.
4. ABOUT THE BIBLEThe Bible is God's Word to us. It was written by human authors, under the supernatural guidance of the Holy spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. Because it is inspired by God, it is the truth without any mixture of error.
II Timothy 3:16; II Peter 1:20, 21; II Timothy 1:13; Psalm 119:105, 160; 12:6; Proverbs 30:5.
