Church membership is the affirmation of who makes up the visible body of Christ in a particular local church. Jesus saves all sorts of people all over the world and brings them into his global family, but the New Testament is clear that his people are to gather in identifiable, local expressions of that family of faith. When you enter into covenant membership with Hope Church, we are affirming to the best of our knowledge that you are a Christian. This gives you assurance and accountability as you aim to make Jesus known. Covenant members of Hope Church commit to one another to see to it that as long as they are together they persevere in faith and make it to glory with Jesus. 

At Hope Church, our members are those who have repented of their sin, put their faith in Jesus for the forgiveness of their sins, have professed this faith through believers baptism, and have covenanted themselves together with the other members of Hope Church to hold each other accountable to their profession of faith and mission to make Jesus known. In short, a member of Hope Church is a affirmed, assured, and formally committed part of Christ’s body at Hope Church in Robinson.
