The restoration of the apostolic anointing has brought great awareness for the need of an Apostolic Covering and Fathering to the Church for the purpose of raising up a generation in the body of Christ to bring restoration. As the Church returns to the pattern of the Early Church, individuals and Churches long for the covering of an Apostle, the “Fathering” Spirit. CCIN is not a denomination or an organization established for the purpose of specific religious doctrines, tenets of faith, creeds or practices. But it provides resources that are necessary for every pastor to fulfill his/her five-fold commission of equipping the saints by teaching, training, activating and maturing saints into their ministry in the body of Christ. In addition, it provides individual members with viable resources readily available to them to move forth in their calling.
