1. “WE AFFIRM” (What We Believe): How is gospel doctrine—our beliefs about God, His Word, and the person and work of His Son, Jesus Christ—foundational to who we are and what we do as a church?
2. “WE AGREE” (How We Live Together): How does gospel doctrine create a gospel culture in which we actively pursue the good of others for the glory of God?
3. “WE ASSEMBLE” (How We Are Organized): How do our structures—including church gatherings, ordinances, leadership, and training—support gospel doctrine becoming a culture?

Attending the class does not obligate you to become a member of our church. However, one cannot apply to be a member of our church until they’ve attended the class.  If, for some reason, you can’t make the entire the class, email info@covenantdenton.org in order to set up a time to cover any material you might miss.

After attending an Exploring Membership Class, you can find the next steps below:

1. Read the CBC Church Covenant, CBC Constitutions and Bylaws, and CBC Statement of Faith which are included in the Exploring Membership Class handouts.
2. Finish the What is a Healthy Church? book by Mark Dever. This is also included along side the other materials from the Exploring Membership Class.
3. Apply for membership. CLICK HERE to fill out the form.
4. Finally, one of our elders will conduct a Memership Interview with you where you will have the opportunity to share your testimony, demonstrate a clear understanding of the gospel, and ask any questions you might have.

Following these steps, our elders will recommend you to our congregation and at the following Members Meeting, our members will vote to welcome you in.
