Values and Beliefs

At the core, The Common Place is driven by God, His Son, and His Spirit. We are on a mission to bring people into faith communities where we can experience the love in relationship with Jesus Christ together. We choose to be part of Coquitlam to connect with people and share God’s truth through neighbourly love.

There’s No Strings Attached in what we do! We serve our neighbourhood unconditionally because that’s the nature of Jesus’ love! We don’t expect anything in return.

Oh, we’re not perfect, and we don’t expect you to be!

Specifically, We Value in…

Treasuring Scripture
The Holy Bible is God’s authoritative Word to us. It was written by humans, yet divinely inspired by the Holy Spirit, and is the record of God’s revelation of Himself to all.

Building Bridges
It’s hard to disagree that we live in a broken world. The Bible shares passionately that a group of Christians, called a church, is empowered to love God by loving all people and bring all into community with one another – to reconcile and to bring redemptive change.

Sharing Christ
Jesus Christ is completely human but, at the same time, completely God. He is the only hope for bringing people who are far from God back into a right relationship with God. He lived a perfect life, so that He could be a substitution for us in satisfying God’s demands for perfection. He defeated death in His resurrection so that we could have life.

Commissioning Leaders
Jesus calls Christians to teach one another how to share our faith in Christ. We’re not here so you can come and be satisfied with a church. Our passion is to train one another to replicate these values so that all may experience Jesus.

Statement Of Faith

We have chosen to be in covenant with the Canadian National Baptist Convention because we share the same passion in transforming communities with God’s love. We share their Statement of Faith here.
