(The following is an excerpt from our Bylaw Article III, History & Purpose of FCCI)

• Bring together in faith, as outlined in the affirmations, a fellowship of companies whose leaders desire to glorify Jesus Christ in every aspect of their businesses.
  
• Share with each other the ways in which we have attempted to bring glory to Jesus, while recognizing that the Holy Spirit works uniquely through our individual personalities.
  
• Encourage each other toward the purposes of FCCI, without legalism or condemnation, with the full understanding that people are free to disagree on the non-essentials left open to individual choice.
  
• Encourage an environment conducive to growth in Christ; believing that we grow better in the fellowship of others who are growing.
  
• Create a forum for collective sharing that will increase the faith of participants and better prepare them to handle daily business situations in a manner glorifying Christ in spirit and truth.
  
• Encourage business owners and executives to assemble regularly for specific times of earnest prayer together, believing that God will especially honor this prayer time.
  
• Exhort each company leader to an "obedient Christian walk" that will help bring into perspective such questions as "What is God's purpose for my building a business?" "What is god's plan for my life and where does my family fit?" "Will I give God an opportunity to impact eternity though my 'availability'?"
  
• Provide fellowship on the basis of regeneration (new birth) and heart for God, emphasizing unity in the body of Christ through God's supernatural agape love.
  
• Encourage the company leader and his or her spouse to participate together in all aspects of FCCI, believing that it is essential to family unity for the company leader and spouse to be in one accord on business matters.
  
• Encourage each other to catch the vision of much good fruit being borne for Jesus through "abiding in the vine" resulting in the generous giving of one's talent, time and treasure.
  
• Provide biblical resource information, based upon Holy Scripture with the goal that the company leader would implement these areas.
