WARNING!
Assessment
Chancellor Christian Church is a locally governed, non-denominational, Bible-believing congregation in the Restoration Movement tradition (Christian Churches and Churches of Christ). Pastor Mark Dunn leads. The Restoration Movement heritage typically emphasizes baptism for salvation (Acts 2:38), which raises soteriology questions. However, many independent Christian Churches hold conservative theology on gender and Scripture. Needs further research on specific doctrinal positions.
