Pastors of the North Central Ohio District are meeting today at Woodville Grace Brethren Church in Mansfield, Ohio, to advance a discussion about “Autonomy and
Cooperation.”
Pastor Todd Scoles, chairman of the NCO leadership team, led the discussion.
Questions asked include:
“What are the three greatest avenues to cooperating in the NCO?”
“What are the three greatest obstacles for cooperating in the NCO?”
“What are the three greatest opportunities for cooperating in the NCO?”
“If NCO churches drafted covenant of cooperating between churches, what
guidelines would you like to see included?”
Grace Brethren churches are historically committed to the autonomy of the local church and to maximum voluntary communication. How these historic commitments are applied to our movement in today’s world is a vital discussion for FGBC churches.
