MEMBERSHIP
ONE HEART ONE MIND
What does it mean to be ‘One Heart, One Mind’?
We believe church “membership” is a biblical concept, that the New Testament presupposes and expects Christians to belong to, serve within and submit to a local church (Hebrews 13:17, Acts 2:47, 1 Timothy 5:9, Romans 12:4-6). By becoming a member, you are saying, “I am one heart and one mind with the doctrine and direction of Faith Bible Church Treasure Valley.”
