Spring Membership Class

Interested in becoming a covenant member at Redemption Arcadia?

Join us for our Spring Membership class. Here we will discuss the history of Arcadia, we will briefly walk through our doctrinal convictions, and share how best to thrive as a member of the body of Christ. All of this followed by a Q&A with members of our elder and pastoral team and staff.

What is membership?

Membership provides a way to determine who is committed to the mission, doctrine, and values of Redemption Arcadia – our local expression of the body of Christ.

Should I become a Member?

Scripture tells us that leaders within the church are called to “equip the saints – or believers – for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God” (Eph 4:12-13). Essentially, we are called to function as one body, made up of many members, with Jesus Christ as our head, working together to grow into maturity (1 Cor 12:12-31). When all believers – not just church staff – embrace the importance of their role in the church community, the body of Christ is able to function with all of the faculties it is supplied with. And when each part is working properly, the body grows into health and strength (Eph 4:16). So you should not enter into the membership covenant because you’ve been around Redemption a while and figure it’s the next step or “something you should do.” Nor should you enter into the membership covenant simply to say, “Redemption is where I go to church.” That’s part of it, but membership is more than that. It is an informed commitment to the doctrine and vision of Redemption Church, a willing submission to the leadership of the church, and an intentional embrace of your role in the body of Christ and the mission of the church.
