Community Guidelines
Creating a safe and encouraging space for all believers.
Our Foundation
Our community is built on love, respect, and the shared desire to grow in faith. These guidelines help us maintain an environment where everyone feels safe to share openly.
Core Principles
1. Love and Respect
Treat every member with love and respect, regardless of their background, denomination, or where they are on their faith journey. We are here to build each other up, not tear down.
2. Authenticity with Wisdom
Share authentically, but use wisdom in what you share publicly. Personal details about others should never be shared without their consent.
3. Encouragement First
When responding to others, lead with encouragement. Even when offering different perspectives, do so with gentleness and respect.
4. Privacy and Confidentiality
What's shared in our community should stay in our community. Don't share others' stories or struggles outside of this platform without their explicit permission.
5. No Judgment
We're all at different places in our faith journey. What matters is that we're seeking growth and connection. Leave judgment at the door.
