Theology/doctrine
As its name suggests, the CCCC espouses theological conservatism and claims to be adamantly Bible-centered. It opposes homosexuality, the right to an abortion, and non-marital sexual activity. The CCCC believes itself to hold fast to orthodox Protestant Christian faith and inerrancy is a guiding principle in Biblical interpretation carried out by ministers and teachers. Some ministers have sought to revive an interest in the study and teachings of Puritanism; however, both Reformed and Arminian emphases may be found in the CCCC, as is usually the case with larger, more broadly-based evangelical groups.
