Church Formation Stance
As with any gathering of believers in Jesus Christ who call Him their Lord and Savior, there is the potential for partnerships to be established as a result of this faith community. Should a group of people among Scattered Seeds Still Bloom membership seek to found a church, Scattered Seeds Still Bloom owners, partners, & affiliates shall have no affiliation with founding nor support whether within the physical organization, presence, financially or otherwise. Scattered Seeds Still Bloom will have no affiliation with any church formation. Scattered Seeds Still Bloom is an independent Christian organization seeking people to gather, heal, learn, and grow in their Christian identity and find their back to already established churches and denominations. Scattered Seeds Still Bloom is accomplishing this goal as its own entity, with its own purpose and mission.
Politics
Politics & political discourse are not a welcomed discussion in our groups here at Scattered Seeds Still Bloom. As we near an election year, we believe that as we teach & preach you will be led in the correct decision on how to vote; a decision that is personal and private. Scattered Seeds Still Bloom seeks to be free from politics, political influence, policy, or other governmental stances as this is a community for sharing our faith in Jesus Christ.
Affiliation
Scattered Seeds Still Bloom is owned & run by Rev. Luke and Rev. Katie Oskin, ordained American Baptist Ministers. This website is not affiliated with any church or church denomination. However, all people who believe in Jesus as their Lord and Savior are welcome here.
