OVERVIEW
A covenant is an agreement between people and/or people and God. It is a commitment to serve willfully and whole-heartedly so that the intended purpose is ultimately achieved.
PURPOSE
The purpose of our SCG student worship team is to help create a woship experience that glorifies God and brings students into a lasting relationship with Jesus Christ.
COMMITMENT TO GOD
SCG student worship team requires a high degree of commitment, which requires that members consider carefully when discerning if this is where God is leading them. Therefore, as a potential member of the SCG student worship team...
I aspire to:
1. Be a committed and faithful follower of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
2. Cultivate my relationship with Christ by intentionally taking time to be still and listen to God through prayer, scripture, other spiritual practices and disciplines.
3. Live publicly and privately in a manner that is consistent with my commitment to Christ and the relationship I have with Him.
4. Submit to the leadership and authority under which God has placed me.
5. Honor God with my social conduct including:
- Choosing to treat everyone as a valuable person, made in the image of God.
- Choosing sexual purity, modesty, and refraining from pre-marital sexual activity and pornography.
- Choosing to guard what I watch, read, and listen to, knowing that what I take in effects who I am and how I serve.
- Choosing to live an exemplary life in the areas of social media and online interaction, understanding that everything I type, post, like, share, tweet, retweet, etc. represents Seacoast Grace Church and ultimately Jesus Christ.
COMMITMENT TO WORSHIP TEAM
I promise to:
- Attend faithfully and be on time to rehearsals and worship services.
