Our Story
The idea of planting Christ Central Church began in 2010 when two friends dreamed of
starting a church in downtown Durham. Three years later, an initial group of people
committed to meeting for weekly Bible study, prayer, and discussion about the church.
We launched our first public worship service in January 2014, and God has been so
gracious to us ever since.
By the grace of God, we have experienced tremendous growth. What began as a prayer
quickly grew to a group of 40 people and has since turned into something much larger.
As we look ahead, we know God has called us to be a church that loves its place and seeks
His glory. We hope to be a place where people ask questions and where people who might
not say they are connected to a church would feel welcome.
We seek to be a diverse community that reflects the beautiful makeup of our city. And we
hope to be a community that seeks justice and mercy for those on the margins of society.
