Open Bible Churches

Open Bible Churches is an association of autonomous, evangelical Pentecostal/Charismatic churches called to be a vital organ in the Body of Christ.

Jesus is blowing a fresh breeze of repentance, prayer, fasting, and evangelistic fervor into our movement.

Our mandate includes the development of healthy, loving relationships that produce support and accountability among our ministers and churches.

God is giving us ever clearer vision, vibrant leadership, and comprehensive strategic planning that He might cause Open Bible to fulfill His purposes in this generation.

Thank you for you interest in discovering if God's will for your life, or the life of your church, might include affiliation with our worldwide family.

May the Father, who has a dream in His heart for you, direct your every step into the perfect will of God.

 

Relationship

 

A unique Open Bible quality is relationship, as affirmed in our distinctive: "A balance of affiliation and freedom, providing accountability without undue control."

We exist to serve churches and pastors, to equip and empower them to fulfill their calling and purpose in the communities in which God has placed them.

This relational commitment is finding growing favor with Spirit-filled churches and ministers looking for a covering and a fellowship home.

 

Governance

 

The membership of Open Bible Churches is the highest governing body. Their convention meets biennially and consists of credentialed ministers in good standing, national directors, and on voting delegate per 100 members from each officially affiliated church.

A national board of directors, composed of national directors and regional representatives, is delegated to conduct the business of the association.
