CFTROU 0195: Embracing Meaningful Membership

There are numerous aspects to embracing meaningful membership at your neighborhood church. At Family Church, we consider membership a privilege, but it also involves a specific process. This process is designed to guide our members toward God’s design through fellowship, teaching, and accountability within their church family. Today, we’re joined by Pastor Derek Simpson, who serves as the campus pastor for our downtown campus and provides leadership for all our ministry teams across all campuses; Pastor Todd Gaston from the North Stuart campus and regional leader of the Treasure Coast; and Pastor Jose DaSilva, the pastor of Iglesia Familiar Greenacres. Join us as we dive into a discussion on the process and purpose of church membership. With this conversation, we want to encourage listeners, not to simply do what we do, but to build a process, stick with it over time, and begin seeing the fruit of it.
