William, I didn't realize you were a 9marks church! I met Dever in Istanbul years ago as his church is a partner with the work in Central Asia. I read through your rough draft of the new church covenant and loved it. It is easy to read and biblical on all points. When a group of people agree to take their covenant seriously and the covenant is grounded on the word of God, great things are in store for them. May the Lord bless you all as you move forward.
