Commitment

Commitment through Membership

Many ask what's the point of membership in a local church...

But when Jesus called people to become His disciples, the first thing He asked for was their commitment (Matthew 4:18–22). Thus, according to Scripture, a disciple needs to be committed to a local church body. Because the church is not an institution but a movement that should carry out the Great Commission, when disciples are committed to a local church, they'll grow in accountability, commitment, and be a part of carrying out the Great Commission.

- Anyone who professes faith in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.
