	William Robinson's Churches of Christ: Their Place in the Christian World.
		Members of Churches of Christ in this country are represented in every business and profession and their representatives sat in the Geneva and Lausanne Conferences and in the Copec Conference, along with those of other Christian churches.
		Again, Churches of Christ are quite orthodox in their beliefs and practices.
		In the first place "Churches of Christ" accept the orthodox doctrines of the Fatherhood of God, the Deity and perfect Humanity of Jesus Christ, His redeeming work for mankind, and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: The Church
		Christ had declared that His kingdom should be spread among all nations, and had committed the execution of the work to the twelve (Matthew 28:19).
		The unity and brotherhood promised by Christ are to be the visible manifestation on the earth of the Divine union (John 17:21).
		Christ came from heaven to reveal the truth to man. If a diversity of creeds could be found in His Church, this could only be because the truth He revealed had been lost in the quagmire of human error.

	Christian Churches / Churches of Christ
		The church was established by Christ and is based upon the fact that He is the Son of God (Matthew 16:16-18).
		The Christian Church/Church of Christ is a part of this movement.
		The Christian Church is quite conservative regarding teachings of the Bible, or Church doctrine.

	Encyclopedia of Religion in the South (Christian Churches and Churches of Christ)
		As they see it, the Disciples of Christ wing has largely abandoned the Restorationist concern in favor of ecumenicity, which also was a major commitment of Campbell; however, it was to be "undenominational" rather than explicitly cooperative Christianity, especially in the earlier years of his career.
		Thus the Christian Churches and Churches of Christ branch of the family is more "conservative" than "liberal"; it remains committed to the words of the Bible, bent on retaining local-church independence.
		It is as firm in its conviction that we are "Christians only" (a slogan from the first generation of the movement) as it is in its rejection of "we are the only Christians." The fellowship honors the qualities of being firm, solid, uncompromising, and earnest.

	Famous members: Christian Churches and Churches of Christ
		The religious body known as the "Christian Churches and Churches of Christ" (also known as the "Independent Christian Churches/Churches of Christ" or "Christian Church/Churches of Christ", often abbreviated "CC/CC") is part of the Stone-Campbell/Restoration Movement that began in 1832.
		The Christian Churches and Churches of Christ continues to be strongly associated with the Stone-Campbell movement as a whole, and with few exceptions its theology and practice matches that of other Stone-Campbell churches and groups.
		The Christian Churches and Churches of Christ split from the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) denomination, although it is difficult to specify exactly when this split occurred, as it happened in stages over the course of many years, principally from 1926 to 1971.

	We are Christians Only: Independent Christian Churches & Churches of Christ (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Simply put, we are Christians only — the Christian Churches/Churches of Christ are autonomous churches that have fellowship with one another as a part of a "brotherhood." We have no denominational status, no hierarchy, no headquarters and no official voice.
		Our churches became dissatisfied over the move towards an official organization of the Disciples; we also opposed open membership policies that were in effect in some churches.
		As one can expect, churches using Christian Church are often confused with the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ); Churches of Christ are often confused with the non-instrumental churches of Christ which officially separated from the Disciples in 1906.

		The Christian Church hermenutic, as I understand it, lacks the rigidity and narrowness found in the C of C branch of the RM.
		I just think churches of Christ in general are dying because our focus is US and our strategy is keep the weakest, loudest member quiet and somewhat happy, and have extremely weak leadership on the elder level.
		Christian churches and other fast growing denominations seem to be converting the pre-Christians (unchurched) in their communities.

	Christian Church Today - WHO ARE WE? Christian Church or Christian Churches
		Posted - 07/19/2004 : 9:43:15 PM As a New Testament Christian and missionary-evangelist for the independent Christian Churches/ Churches of Christ, I am deeply troubled by Lerroy Lawson’s redefinition of “Who We Are”, as posted at http://www.christianchurchtoday.com/whoweare.asp.
		This material was originally published in the Christian Standard back in 1993, I think, and was re-released again more recently in a special insert of the Christian Standard, called "What Kind of Church Is This?" -- the distribution of which is of course up to each congregation.
		First he talks about "this Christian church" (the congregation from which the potential convert got the booklet) and then, in the next paragraph, refers to "Christian churches and churches of Christ" (as he makes a transition to the section about the early history of the Restoration Movement).

	CHRISTIAN CHURCHES AND CHURCHES OF CHRIST (part of the "RESTORATIONIST" MOVEMENT)
		I thought this was a good introduction to the "Restoration" movement of the 19th century, and to (some of) the various churches that arose from of it.
		However, in their defense, as the Churches of Christ are not a denomination per se lacking any overarching theology/creed to bind them together, your local CoC congregation may believe differently.
		Here is a link for you on how the various founders of denominational church felt about instrumental music in the worship service: href=http://www.bibleweb.com/library/jh-im3.html As far as wearing make-up by women is concerned, there is no such prohibition in the chruches of Christ.

	Analyze This (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		When the news broke that conservative Christian Churches and Churches of Christ were the second-fastest growing church (we neither accept or use the term “denomination”) in America in the last decade, it was greeted with a brief and measured response in the November 3, 2002 Christian Standard.
		Not all that is new is good—some is ill-advised and theologically shallow.
		Often these new church plants are several years in the planning before the actual “launching”—and when they are launched, it is a multiple staff effort with hundreds, if not thousands, of people who have been contacted, taught, and discipled.

	Council on Christian Unity
		Indianapolis—In the recent meeting of the Stone-Campbell Dialogue on April 26, 2004, representatives of the Churches of Christ, the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), and the Christian Churches/Churches of Christ proposed a "Great Communion Celebration" in 2009 to serve as a focus and framework for its work in the coming years.
		It is hoped that thousands of Christians from across the three streams of the movement would gather in 2009 to celebrate the Lord’s Supper in local communities all across North America as a recognition of our unity in Christ.
		Presentations were made by Newell Williams (Disciples), Doug Foster (Churches of Christ), and Paul Blowers (Christian Churches/Churches of Christ) about the meaning and impact of the Last Will and Testament of the Springfield Presbyterian that launched the Stone-Campbell Movement in 1804 in Cane Ridge, Kentucky.

		What do Stone-Campbell churches (Churches of Christ, Christian Churches, Disciples of Christ) add to the discussion of the emerging church?
		Answer: In “A Generous Orthodoxy,” I offer a few comments about Restorationist movements in church history — I think they would generally be relevant to the Stone-Campbell movement.
		Most Restorationist churches have wonderful high ideals, and often related to the need for generosity in avoiding sectarianism.
