Membership
Series: Gospel Driven
Connor Baxter | January 19, 2025
In today’s podcast, we’re exploring the purpose of church membership. Membership at church is about belonging to a community that fosters care, accountability, and spiritual growth. It’s a commitment to support and be supported, to raise up the next generation in faith, and to exercise spiritual gifts for God’s glory. Membership means sharing life together, growing deeper in Christ, and living out His mission as one body.
