Our Structure
Non-Denominational
Collective Church is a non-denominational Christian church in Kinston that is supported by church planting organizations and individual churches, not a denomination.
Elder-Led
We are led by a board of directors made of up our lead pastor and other pastors, elders, and staff from our partner churches and planting organizations.
Our Beliefs
All Scripture is inspired by God and is profitable for teaching.
At Collective, we believe the Bible is the infallible, inerrant word of God; it is the foundation of all truth. Therefore, all of our beliefs and stances as a church were developed solely from scripture, not tradition or opinion. We are, however, a church that allows people to belong before they believe, so you don't have to agree with us on all issues for you to find loving community at our church.
