Our Story

Champions Christian Community Church started in 2016 as a Breakfast and Bible study in the basement of Pastor Corey and Lady Jennifer Sturdivant's home in Henderson, CO. In 2019, C4 began the process of adopting Goodness & Mercy Outreach Church in Clarksville, TN, which the late Bishop Maybelline Sturdivant founded in 1998. The adoption was completed in October 2021 after the Sturdivant family relocated to Clarksville in humble obedience to God. Since their arrival, the ministry has experienced exciting growth by emphasizing discipleship and community service. The C4 family ferociously attacked the church's debt to pay off the mortgage on their 17-acre property and are preparing to open a second location in Clarksville in anticipation of divine growth. Pastor Corey is a Doctoral Theologian, and Lady J holds a Master's Degree in Business Administration. They have been married since September 2000 and are the proud parents of two beautiful children who serve alongside them in ministry. 

"Whenever you're at The Gathering of Champions, you are in a safe place. My hope and prayer during your visit are that wherever you are on your spiritual journey, you will be open to hearing, seeing, and experiencing something that draws you closer to Jesus Christ."

~Pastor Corey D. Sturdivant
