| LEADERSHIP COVENANT ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
This “covenant” document outlines several commitments we will hold each other to this year:
| OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU We will … 1. be a ministry staff who prioritize their personal walks with Christ so we can lead you from a place of health. (Abide; John 15) 2. provide a weekly space for you to step into discipleship and community. 3. encourage you to stay accountable to your trajectory of holiness and to your mission field. 4. provide relevant training that will inform you about biblical theology with the purpose of better equipping you to confidently step into your mission field. 5. love you well. We want you to be seen, known and loved. Our ability to do this depends upon your vulnerability with us.
| YOUR COMMITMENT TO US 1. Be in biblical community. Identify to us what home group you are part of and/or who holds you accountable. 2. Make Wednesdays a top priority. o First Wednesdays: Your opportunity to bring people to “come and see” Renovate Worship o All other Wednesdays: Renovate Leadership Training (fall and spring semesters) 3. Let us speak into your life as needed, as shepherds who are prayerfully committed to pointing you towards Jesus. 4. Communicate with us consistently. We hope you feel loved and cared for by our church. If you don’t feel that way, please let us be the first people you tell about it. 5. Be a team player who pursues unity. A leader on our team must … o embrace Christ Chapel's doctrinal position and constitution without reservation and be an advocate of our philosophy of ministry both in public and in private. o be a maturing believer who is obviously, consistently and increasingly manifesting the fruit of the Spirit in his daily walk with Christ. (Galatians 5:22-23)
| YOUR COMMITMENT TO THE LORD 1. Love God most. Put God first. God wants your primary obedience; therefore your first priority is your relationship with God. (Abide; John 15) 2. Love God’s Word. Part of loving God and His Word is acknowledging the whole Bible as the inerrant and useful for everything. Leaders are committed to the continued learning of the Bible for the betterment of themselves and their community. (2 Timothy 3:16-17) “… as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.” (Matthew 25:40)
