10-Point Theological Scorecard

Christology

Is Jesus the only way? (John 14:6)

Beliefs page affirms Trinity — Father/Son/Holy Spirit eternally distinct and fully divine.

Strong

Scripture

Inerrancy affirmed? Final authority?

'The Bible is the authoritative and inerrant Word of God.' Explicit inerrancy.

Strong

Men's Discipleship

Intentional formation for men?

Not highlighted on reviewed pages.

Caution

Soteriology

Faith alone? How is salvation presented?

Substitutionary atonement stated: Jesus 'died...bearing the sin and punishment of all mankind' — by grace through faith.

Strong

Gender / Biblical Design

Biblical manhood and womanhood by God's design — patriarchal, complementarian, egalitarian, or affirming gender ideology?

Per ChurchClarity the church is 'non-egalitarian'; website does not publish full policy. Lead pastor male; women's-pastor question unresolved in public docs.

ChurchClarity lists TPCC as non-egalitarian; lead pastor is male (Aaron Brockett). Specific policy on women elders/preachers not published on main site.

Caution

Leadership Structure

Male elders/pastors? Accountability?

Lead Pastor Aaron Brockett since 2007; multi-site with executive team — details of elder plurality not public on main pages.

Caution

Preaching Style

Expository or topical/therapeutic?

Megachurch topical-expository mix typical of Independent Christian Churches.

Caution

Mission Clarity

Great Commission central?

'All are free to belong before they believe' inclusion language alongside evangelism framing.

Caution

Cultural Alignment

DEI/CRT language? Social justice crowding out gospel?

Inclusion rhetoric ('everyone's welcome...regardless of whether you believe what we believe') sits in tension with conservative gender stance — no overt DEI/CRT.

Caution

Accountability Structure

Denominational home, elder plurality, or external network — is the pastor answerable to anyone?

About, elders, who-we-are, and staff pages did not expose an elder roster (either 404 or log-in-gated Rock RMS). Beliefs page affirms inerrancy and substitutionary atonement but no named elder plurality surfaced, no external network (Acts 29, 9Marks, TGC, Founders) named. Restoration Movement heritage is non-confessional. Kept RED pending public elder roster.
