TCN (Transcendent Christian Networks) are based on the common Bible (Both Catholics and Protestants agree on) and beliefs found in the Niacin and Apostle Creeds.  These creeds point to a transcendent relationship with Jesus Christ, who transcends time and culture, and religion.  The Bible needs to be interpreted through the Holy Spirit, who helps us relate Jesus and our world.
