SEED VERSE

"We loved you so much that we were delighted to share with you not only the Gospel  of God, but our lives as well, because you had become so dear to us."

1 Thessalonians 2:8

ABOUT OUR DENOMINATION

THE EVANGELICAL COVENANT CHURCH

The Evangelical Covenant Church, or ECC, is rooted in historical Christianity as it emerged in the Protestant Reformation, the Biblical instruction of the Lutheran State Church of Sweden, and the great spiritual awakenings of the early nineteenth century. These three influences are important to keep in mind in order to understand its distinctive spirit.

In the United States and Canada, the ECC is a rapidly growing multiethnic denomination with ministries on 5 continents of the world. The ECC values the Bible as the Word of God, the gift of God's grace and ever-deepening spiritual life that comes through a faith in Jesus Christ, the importance of extending God's grace and compassion in a hurting world, and the strength that comes unity within diversity.


The ECC is: 

  • Evangelical, but not exclusive
  • Biblical, but not doctrinaire
  • Traditional, but not rigid
  • Congregational, but not independent

BECOMING A MEMBER

When a new member joins a Covenant church, they are asked two questions: "Do you confess Jesus Christ as your Savior and promise to follow Him as Lord?" and "Do you accept the Holy Scriptures, the Old and New Testaments, as the Word of God and the only perfect rule for faith, doctrine, and conduct?"


That is all. That's enough.
