WHAT TO EXPECT
What is membership at Liberty?
An important aspect of a strong family is commitment: loving and supporting each other, working together, and identifying with family values and beliefs. Belonging to a church family is very similar and involves membership. Membership is also a commitment, expressing an individual's identification, participation, and partnership with the local church. It is a public statement of allegiance, signifying agreement with what the church believes and values.
Is Liberty a part of any denomination?
Liberty Bible Church is a part of the Evangelical Free Church of America. The EFCA is an association of about 1,300 autonomous churches united by a mutual commitment to serve the Lord Jesus Christ with the guidance of the Holy Spirit and in obedience to the Word of God. The term "Evangelical" refers to our commitment to the proclamation of the gospel and to the authority of the Scripture as the only safe and sufficient guide to faith and practice. The term "Free" refers to the autonomy of local churches, as well as to a congregational form of government. Evangelical Free Churches depend upon the active participation of lay people in their decisions and ministries.
What do I have to do to become a member?
Your first step towards becoming a member at Liberty is registering for one of our upcoming membership classes using the link above. When you have finished your class for membership, you have the option of filling out a membership application and meeting with an elder for a prospective member interview. After completing that step, you will then be given the opportunity to share your testimony with a small group of your choice from Liberty.
Upon completing the membership process, you will be presented to the congregation as a new member. After the service, members from our congregation will have the opportunity to say a word of welcome and shake your hand.
