The Leadership Honor Code
As an essential part of the Overflow Church Leadership family, you have a responsibility to develop and exhibit mature Christian behavior.
This should be the basic premise of your desire to participate in a servant-leader position here at Overflow Church.
While serving the Body of Christ as a servant-leader at Overflow Church, you pledge to present a good appearance at all times.
In both attire and behavior, you should strive to demonstrate Biblical standards in all situations.
As Christians, the way we present ourselves to others is of vital importance to the way others perceive Christ.
Our conduct should never be an embarrassment to Christ, but should exemplify the best qualities of a mature believer and servant-leader.
Exemplifying the highest moral commitment, Overflow Church leaders are to maintain a disciplined life of Bible reading, prayer, and fasting.
You must also strive to refrain from such things as:
Profanity
Gambling
Indulging in much wine or other alcoholic beverages
Dishonest gain
Illicit drugs
Pornography
Sexual immorality (sexual activity outside of marriage and/or homosexuality)
All behaviors which might cause Christ to grieve and others to stumble
By providing an example in speech and action, we encourage others to grow in Christ and become servant-leaders themselves.
This is a way of life measured by the heart and commitment of each leader in the Overflow Church family.
We should regard it as an essential part of our development, not as an imposition or restriction.
Having read the Overflow Leadership Honor Code, I commit today to live by the standards expected of a leader at Overflow.
