At the end of Nehemiah chapter 9 we see the Israelites formally covenant together, and in chapter 10 we see the obligations of that covenant explicitly described.  It is no coincidence that we at Restoration Church carryout this same practice.  But what exactly is a church covenant?

“A church covenant is a series of written pledges based on the Bible which church members voluntarily make to God and to one another regarding their basic moral and spiritual commitments and the practice of their faith”  (Charles W. DeWeese, Baptist Church Covenants, p. viii).

In short, a church covenant summarizes our beliefs and behaviors.
