Thank you for your interest in serving as a volunteer in Family Ministry at North Point Community Church. We appreciate your willingness to take the time to fill out the application and consider serving. There are a few things we want to make sure we say up front about what we believe as an organization.
North Point Ministries and North Point Community Church operate under biblical authority and recognize the Bible as the ultimate source for truth and wisdom. We believe that all Scripture is inspired by God and gives us God’s requirements for leaders and those of influence in the church. Because of this, we ask that our volunteers recognize what the Bible teaches in regards to family and lifestyle choices. We are held accountable for every leader we approve to influence kids and families at North Point Community Church.
If you are a participant in any of the following lifestyles, we ask that you not apply to serve or lead in a Family Ministry environment (Waumba Land, UpStreet, KidStuf, Xtreme, and InsideOut):
- Living with someone of the opposite sex outside of marriage
- Participating in a homosexual relationship
- Pursuing an affair outside of marriage
- Using alcohol excessively
- Using drugs illegally
It is important to say that we also believe that God loves all people and His grace is offered to everyone, regardless of his or her current lifestyle. The criteria listed above are specifically laid out in the Scriptures as qualifications for those in leadership and influence, not to point out a category of people that God does not love or offer His grace. This understanding is vital in order to see these parameters rightly.
If you have concerns, questions, or feel that the guidelines listed above disqualify you from serving, please contact the ministry area staff and he or she will be glad to talk with you.
Thank you.
