why commit?

Covenant is a biblical concept. In the Ancient Near East, covenant was a binding agreement in which covenant members had certain obligations and could expect certain benefits in return. What makes a covenant different from a simple binding agreement is that covenant implies meaningful relationship. God covenanted with Noah, Abram, and eventually the people of Israel at Mt. Sinai. The prophets viewed the covenant at Sinai as a marriage between Yahweh and his people. We believe that to commit our lives to God, one another, and to reaching the world through meaningful relationships is what it means to be the church.

If you would like to covenant with us as we try to live out what it means to be the church in our area,  join us on Sundays for worship and the teaching of God's Word.  Then we have a Discovering Central Luncheon every fourth Sunday in months with five Sundays for a time of Q and A and fellowship.
