Who We Are
Rooted in scripture, we seek the peace and prosperity of our city (Jeremiah 29:7), build authentic fellowship and generosity with each other (Acts 2:42–47), and empower each other to walk in unity and maturity in Christ (Ephesians 4).
How We're Different
Traditional Chambers of Commerce are designed to function internationally, nationally and locally with a proven record of success for the benefit of business, commerce, and communities.
Our Christian Chamber functions through a Kingdom Economics perspective – with a City Transformation focus – flipping the script on how the world thinks about money, success, and impact. It’s not about hoarding resources but stewarding them with joy, generosity, and trust in God’s unlimited provision....creating an economy where giving multiplies, relationships are richer than spreadsheets, and purpose outshines profit margins….to ensure that everyone in the city prospers (regardless of whether they accept Jesus as Messiah – just as the early church did within their communities).
When our members adopt a Kingdom Economics lifestyle, they trade scarcity thinking for abundance living, discover the adventure of blessing others, and find that their work becomes a divine partnership rather than just a paycheck. It’s economics with eternal dividends and community impact worth investing in!

Our Statement of Faith
WE BELIEVE that God is the Eternal King. He is an infinite, unchangeable Spirit, perfect in holiness, wisdom, goodness, justice, power, and love. From all eternity He exists as the One Living and True God in three persons of one substance, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, equal in power and glory.
WE BELIEVE that the Word of God is inspired, infallible, inerrant, and authoritative – living and active, applicable to any situation, and available to any person who seeks His wisdom.
WE BELIEVE that God’s Kingdom is everlasting. From His throne, through His Son, His eternal Word God created, upholds, and governs all that exists: The heavenly places, the angelic hosts, the universe, the earth, every living thing, and mankind. God created all things very good.
WE BELIEVE that Satan (originally a great, good angel) rebelled against God, taking a host of angels with him. He was cast out of God’s presence and, as a usurper of God’s rule, established a counter kingdom of darkness and evil on earth.
WE BELIEVE that God created mankind in His image, male and female, for relationship with Himself and to govern the earth. We believe God creates each person with an immutable biological sex – male or female – that reflects the image and likeness of God. We believe God designed marriage as a life-long covenantal relationship, joining one man and one woman as a representation of Christ and the church. God intends sexual intimacy only to occur within that relationship.
WE BELIEVE that in the fullness of time, God honored His covenants with Israel and His prophetic promises of salvation by sending His only Son, Jesus, into the world. Conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary, as fully God and fully man in one person, He lived a sinless life, was crucified, resurrected from the dead, and ascended into heaven to be seated at the right hand of God the Father. Whoever believes Jesus is the son of God and Lord of all, and receives the gift of salvation through repentance, is born again into a new creation, and sealed with the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. Salvation is for the Jews and the Gentiles – and because of that, we believe God endows all human life with inherent dignity, and it must be respected and protected since life begins at conception.
WE BELIEVE that the Holy Spirit was poured out on the evening of the resurrection, when Jesus breathed upon his disciples and told them to receive the Holy Spirit; and that the Holy Spirit indwells every believer in Jesus Christ. Holy Spirit is our abiding Helper, Teacher, and Guide. We believe in baptism in the name of the Father, Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit. We believe in the present ministry of the Spirit.
WE BELIEVE that in partnership with the ministry of our Lord Jesus Christ, God’s Kingdom will be established in the glorious, visible, and triumphant appearing of Christ: His return to the earth as King. Until then, Jesus Christ calls all of us to deny ourselves, take up our cross, and follow Him. Lordship of Christ requires us as disciples to seek to conform our actions, thoughts, desires, and apply His Kingdom principles and ways to all that we do in obedience to Him and His Word through Scripture. For if we love Him, we will obey His commands.
Our Vision
Flourishing Communities Cultivated by Christ-Centered Unity & Values
A flourishing Greater Atlanta where every community thrives, city sectors live in unity, and Kingdom values shape a lasting culture of peace, prosperity, and hope for generations to come.
Our Mission
Transforming Cities through Kingdom Economics
We equip and support biblically aligned individuals, businesses, nonprofits, churches, and other city sectors with resources, advocacy, and strategic collaboration through a Kingdom economics lens — strengthening leaders, uniting efforts, and advancing Christ’s love in Greater Atlanta and beyond.
What We Do
We inspire people to live “on mission” with Jesus more consistently through relationship building activities, collaborative conversations, personal-professional development, advocacy, events, and transformational community improvement initiatives.
GAC3 Culture
At GAC3, we treasure authentic fellowship – the kind that grows from real conversations and shared laughter. Think of your business card as a friendship seed, not a sales tool. Plant it with care, no strings attached, and watch genuine relationships bloom in their own sweet time.
In that same spirit, we see stewardship and generosity as the sunshine and water that help our community flourish. When we give our time, talents, and resources freely, everyone grows stronger. It’s not about keeping score – it’s about cultivating a garden of goodness where blessings naturally multiply.
And when it comes to collaboration, we believe in weaving our unique threads together to create something far more beautiful than any of us could craft alone. Each idea, skill, and spark of creativity adds color to the tapestry. Together, we don’t just work side by side…..we co-create Kingdom impact that lasts for the benefit of Greater Atlanta and beyond!
Expect a culture of:
~ Relationships before transactions
~ Generosity outperforms gain
~ Collaboration exceeds competition
Core Values
1) AUTHENTIC FELLOWSHIP: We are devoted to building Christ-centered relationships that have genuine, heart-to-heart connection built on shared vulnerability, honesty, and mutual encouragement – going beyond superficial conversations to include deep sharing of joys, sorrows, strengths, and struggles.
2) GENEROSITY & STEWARDSHIP: We share resources, time, and influence generously, stewarding them wisely for the good of others and the advancement of God’s Kingdom.
3) SPIRIT-LED COLLABORATION: We believe transformation happens when people work together under the guidance of the Holy Spirit to be a beacon of hope to our city.
4) FAITH-FILLED LIFESTYLE: We must be immersed in God’s Word and adopt a sound biblical worldview resulting in a lifestyle that reflects the practical application of that worldview in everyday life characterized by choices, actions, and behaviors that reflect biblical values through surrendering to Christ’s Lordship (personally and professionally!).
5) KINGDOM IMPACT: We seek the peace and prosperity of our city by bringing Kingdom principles into every sphere of influence.
6) ADVENTURE MINDSET: We adopt an Adventure Mindset to confidently take meaningful risks within divine assignments and lean into Jesus during uncertainty and challenging experiences.
7) UNITY IN CHRIST: We pursue oneness in the Spirit, honoring diversity of gifts while working together to build up the Body of Christ.
8) DISCIPLESHIP & GROWTH: We commit to equipping people to grow in faith, maturity, and calling, so that every believer can live fully on mission and become effective ambassadors of Christ within their sphere of influence.
Planned Areas For Impact
1. Development of City Sector Teams: These teams will be created based on spheres of influence and work together for the flourishing of all
2. Communities: We partner with individuals, businesses, and all community sectors and leaders to strengthen Greater Atlanta and meet real needs in practical, sustainable ways
3. Living On Purpose: We believe everyone moves through different seasons of exploration, launching, growth, and legacy building as they journey with Jesus throughout their lives, and we support our members to step into those seasons with joy and peace.
4. Marketplace: We encourage ethical business practices, integrity in leadership, and Kingdom-minded entrepreneurship
5. Families: We support initiatives that nurture and protect families, recognizing them as the heart of a flourishing city
6. Church Partnerships: We connect and equip churches to extend their reach into the marketplace and civic life through collaboration and shared mission
7. Civic Engagement: We work alongside government and civic leaders to cultivate peace, prosperity, and flourishing for the good of all people.
All of that Happens Through:
- Prayer: An active member-driven prayer covering by building a strong prayer network across member communities to capture prayer requests and real life challenges, building bridges of support where possible
- Equipping & Encouragement: A commitment to support our members in whatever season of life they are to live on purpose for Jesus’ glory within their spheres of influence through our “Explore-Launch-Grow-Legacy” Adventure journeys.
- Collaboration & Generosity: A culture of collaboration and generosity that mobilizes resources, volunteers, and partnerships to bring solutions and lasting hope where it is most needed
