​Member Qualifications

Every member should have a proven track record of exemplifying the two LifeWise Core Values:

1. COMMITMENT – Members have their hearts in the right place. They are motivated by their love for the Lord and are all in. They are fully supportive of the gospel-centered purposes of a local LifeWise program.
2. COMPETENCE – Members have the know-how, skills and relationships to get stuff done.

​

*Note: Each member must provide the contact info of a local church leader in which he/she is an active participant. While we recognize that there are sometimes legitimate reasons to be “between churches,” LifeWise is fundamentally a local church driven ministry and it is, therefore, important for Leadership Board members to be representative of local churches.
