Lead Pastor Joe Valenti shows that Third John’s core message is this: true church membership isn’t a name on a roll but a lifestyle marked by four traits—walking in Christ’s truth, sacrificially supporting gospel workers, rejecting pride-fueled division under godly leadership, and cultivating a reputable, love-filled witness. He urges us to embrace membership’s accountability so our faith moves beyond mere words into daily obedience and sacrificial love, ensuring we’ll be remembered as truly godly people.
