LEGAL & ETHICAL YOUTH MINISTRY
OBJECTIVE
The importance of operating legally and ethically in your ministry.
Lord as you created me in your own image I pray that you give me the wisdom to keep the dignity of each young person at the forefront of this ministry.
INTRODUCTION TO OPERATING LEGALLY & ETHICALLY
Every institute is governed by rules and regulations. These rules and regulations serve a purpose, which is to protect the safety and dignity of those that the institute is responsible for.
“Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore he who resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of him who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, for he is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain; he is the servant of God to execute his wrath on the wrongdoer. Therefore one must be subject, not only to avoid God’s wrath but also for the sake of conscience.”
Romans 13:1-5 RSVCE
