How we treat one another
- Speak in love. Disagree honestly, never cruelly. Debate ideas, not people.
- Guard the vulnerable. Prayer requests, testimonies, and confessions are held in trust. Do not screenshot or mock what is shared here.
- Welcome the stranger. Circle is majority Christian and every seeker, doubter, and person of another faith is welcomed with dignity.
- Give honestly. Donation and help-request stories must be truthful. Misrepresentation is fraud and will be removed and reported.
- Credit creators. Do not repost reels, sermons, or worship without permission or clear attribution.
