About Us
Who We Are
TVCC is a family of broken people that seek Jesus in all aspects of their life. Through our relationship with Jesus, we have experienced healing, forgiveness, and freedom. We want everyone to experience the same thing!
Our Journey
Since August 23, 2000, we've journeyed together through blessings, challenges, and immense joy, guided by God's unmistakable call. We've witnessed hundreds come to Christ and seen TVCC flourish into a vibrant, disciple-making community. Our global mission work continues to expand as we embrace each new opportunity with a resounding "Yes, Lord!"
The Mission
TVCC's mission is guided by both The Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20) and The Great Commandment (Matthew 22:37-39). We are called to love one another as Christ has loved us and to make disciples.
What We Believe
At TVCC we maintain that beliefs hold little value unless they are transformed into actions. The journey of faith involves growing as disciples and maturing as followers of Christ. Grounded in biblical teachings, we firmly believe that the following practices should become evident in the life of every believer.
The Bible as Our Sole Authority
“All Scripture is inspired by God and useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives." - 2 Timothy 3:15-16
God’s Word is the only completely reliable and truthful authority, making the Bible our manual for living. We practice daily Bible reading, study, and memorization.

Spirit-Led Living
Jesus said, “I am the Vine, you are the branches. If you abide in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit, but apart from me, you can do nothing." - John 15:5
We believe that living the Christian life is only possible through God's power within us, relying on the Holy Spirit daily. (See Philippians 2:13, Ephesians 5:18)

Telling Others About Christ
"Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have." - 1 Peter 3:15
It is the responsibility of every Christian to share the Good News with those that God allows to cross our path. We practice personal sharing about Christ and invite friends to church.

The Autonomy of Each Local Church
“Christ is the head of His body, the church. He is the source of the Body’s life.” - Colossians 1:18
Christ is the head of our church. While valuing cooperation with other Christians, we believe each local church should be self-governing and independent from denominational control.

The Priesthood of Every Believer
“Christ loves us and by His death He has freed us from our sins and made us a kingdom of priests to serve God..." - Revelation 1:6
Every Christian is called to full-time service. We encourage every member to find a place of ministry, as each believer has direct access to God through prayer and Bible reading.

Baptism
“For when you were baptized, you were buried with Christ and in baptism you were also raised with Christ..." - Colossians 2:12
We practice baptism by immersion, following the example and command of Jesus.

Communion
Jesus said, “…This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.... "In the same way also he took the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me. ” - 1 Corinthians 11:24-25
The Lord’s Supper is for born-again followers of Christ. TVCC offers Communion to all believers.

Giving
Stewardship
A steward manages finances and property for others. In a Christian worldview, everything we have is from God. We have fellowship with God and each other through Christ. God's grace provides our needs, wants, and spiritual gifts for service in the church. Each church member is entrusted with these key assets.
Our Money
God blesses us by meeting our needs and more. Good stewardship involves responsible living and generosity. The Bible teaches us to avoid debt, be content, and generous. Christians should live below their means and be ready to give to the church ministry. As God blesses us with more, we should give more.
Tithing
“A tithe of everything you produce belongs to the Lord; it is holy to the Lord.” -Leviticus 26:30
At TVCC, we practice tithing to support Christ’s Body, the church, as commanded by God. We recognize that giving a regular percentage of our income is the biblical standard of giving.
