Partnership

Membership = Partnership

"I thank my God every time I remember you.  In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus."

Philippians 1:3-6

Why "Partner" instead of "Member"?


At Life Pointe, we use the term “Partner” rather than “Member” because we feel that it more accurately describes the relationship into which the Holy Spirit leads us in the church. 


In any joint venture, partners make a mutual investment, accept mutual risk, and experience mutual blessing. 


Partners aren’t spectators. They “have skin in the game.” 


For that reason, we ask those who choose to become Partners to make a few fundamental commitments contained in something we call the Partnership Promise


You are free to attend Life Pointe Church without committing to the Promise, but if Life Pointe is your church, we hope that God will lead you to take that step.


What is a Partner?


A Life Pointe Partner is a person who is trusting in Jesus Christ as Savior, who has gone public with their faith by being baptized in water, who is investing their spiritual gifts and personal resources in advancing the mission and vision of Life Pointe Church, and who has been affirmed for Partnership by the Elders of the church.

I would like to become a Life Pointe Church Partner. What do I do next?

Consider whether you are in agreement with what we believe and teach.

Thoughtfully review our “Mission, Vision, and Values”

Consider whether you are personally able to embrace these as your own, and invest with others in advancing this mission.

baptism

If you have not gone public with your faith in Christ through baptism since you believed in Him, indicate to the Pastors and Elders that you would like to take this step. Your baptism will be scheduled as soon as possible.

Find your place of service

Give active consideration, if you have not already, to where you will commit to serve in the ministry of our church.

Read "The Life Pointe Partnership Promise"

Consider whether you can commit to supporting Life Pointe in the ways outlined in the Promise.
