Our Mission

Smoky Mountain Christian Village serves the retreat, camping, and conference needs of the Christian Community. We provide grace-filled, southern hospitality to both ministries and families in a safe, Christ-centered environment in which to “be still, and know” that God is God.

Our Purpose

Smoky Mountain Christian Village provides an atmosphere in which God can work for a meaningful, spirit-filled experience in the lives of our guests.

Our Motto

Serving Through Hospitality

 

CORE VALUES:

Primacy of the Bible

We value the Bible and all Biblical doctrine as absolute truth for which all believers should base their convictions, conduct, and communication. We desire every individual and group to spend time reading and meditating on God’s Word while they are guests at SMCV.

Passion for Hospitality

We value grace-filled, southern hospitality that comes from the heart of a servant of the Lord Jesus Christ. We believe that every guest or guest group should be greeted and hosted with hospitality that exceeds any and all expectations and clearly recognizes the worth of each individual before God.

Priority of the Church

We value the church community and thus acknowledge that the church is God’s instrument in reaching the world, both locally and globally, with the Gospel of Christ.

Pursuit of a Biblical Worldview

We value serving with a Biblical worldview that recognizes the absolute authority of the Bible as the source of truth to govern believers in living as light in a dark world.

Practice of Integrity

We value serving with integrity to foster a climate of righteousness and accountability in all relationships.
