Why join a church?

Many people ask, “Why is it important to join a church?” It’s a great question, and  here are our four reasons to join a church:

  1. It's biblical to join a church.
  2. It's spiritually encouraging to join a church.
  3. It's socially necessary to join a church.
  4. Joining a church helps you live a mission-centered life.

Discovering Northstar is our membership class.

It is a great way to discover the who, what, when, where and why of Northstar. We cover our vision, values and ministry hopes as well as provide a time of Q&A. Groups are scheduled for the first Sunday of each month, normally. It is a one-session group and does not obligate you to join.

WHY MEMBERSHIP MATTERS

Northstar is a covenant membership church.

That means that we renew our church membership on an annual basis and that our membership is centered around a membership covenant. (see below) Having a covenant membership means that we want membership to be meaningful.
