About the churches of Christ

We are non-denominational and have no central headquarters or president. The head of the church is none other than Jesus Christ himself (Ephesians 1:22-23).

Each congregation of the churches of Christ is autonomous, and it is the Word of God that unites us into One Faith (Ephesians 4:3-6). We follow the teachings of Jesus Christ and not the teachings of man. We are Christians only!

God tells us we are “a people belonging to God, that we may declare the praises of Him who called us out of darkness into His wonderful light” (1 Peter 2:9).

Are we perfect? No! Do we believe we’re better than you or anyone else? No!

The passage quoted above expresses it best. God has “called us out” of the sad conformity of this world into His wonderful way of living for Him. After searching for happiness in so many ways, we can’t help but share the treasure of true happiness we’ve found in Jesus Christ!

 

About Deep River

At Deep River you’ll find people of all races, cultures, backgrounds, and opinions. You’ll find people who have messed up. You’ll find people who seem to have done everything right. The truth is we’re all sinners (Romans 3:23).

What holds us together is an intimate bond found only in the blood Jesus shed on the cross to save us from our sins. Barriers the world has taught us to build crumble when we study the truth of God’s Word. We want to love others the way Jesus did and live holy lives, as He taught us. We want to be known by our dedication to God, to each other, and to YOU! You’ll know us by our love.

Come see if we practice what we preach. We'd love to talk with you, and have you visit us soon!
