A Concise History ：

April, 1993 :

Rev. Joseph Tien and a few co-workers felt the call to plant a church in the East Bay with a vision for God's heart today—the prophet Joel said that God would pour out His Spirit on all mankind in these last days. This ministry emphasizes the Word of God, as well as the power of the Holy Spirit. They specifically chose the name, “Great Commission Christian Church" we are called to preach the Good News to every nation, not only in the Bay Area.
