House Church Values & Practices: Proposal Two

Gospel-family is our Fundamental Context

We are committed to living our lives within, and out of, the context of being a household of faith. This relationship as gospel-family will set the ethos of our lives with one-another as we strive daily to live in sacrificial, transparent, agape relationships as true brothers and sisters in the Spirit.  

         We will expect each of our own personal decisions to be made with consideration towards their implications upon our congregation, and that any grave or significant decisions we may have should be decided by seeking wisdom and prayer from the congregation. 

          We are committed to resolving conflict among us through clear, confronting, grace-filled dialogue, and exhorting one-another to let nothing separate us from Christ, His Church, and His Gospel having priority over us. Not comfort, not convenience, not wealth, not personal preferences, not reputations, not fear of man, not biological family, nor the State.  Our God is our all-in-all, and we desire to live authentically in light of that confession.
