MEMBERSHIP

Church membership is a mutual commitment, with members committing themselves to the church and the church overseers, and the church through its overseers accepting responsibility for the pastoral care and disciplining of church members. A person who believes and accepts personal salvation through faith in Jesus Christ and is baptised by full immersion may enter into membership of the church.

'WE BELIEVE' SERIES


We actively encourage people to become church members and regularly offer the opportunity for people to participate in the ‘We Believe’ series which forms the basis for prospective members to understand and commit to the beliefs and practices of Skye Bible Church.

On the premise that biblical truth is the foundation upon which Christ is building His church, we examine a six-part series of foundational Christian teachings, as a preparation for church membership.

The main tenets are We believe in God, Salvation, the Bible, the Church, Service, and Mission. Please click on the links below to listen to the membership series.

Our Origins


As a result of much prayer and preparation, Skye Bible Church was established in February 1994.

The vision was of a New Testament church with the same hallmarks as the first Christian believers: fervency of prayer, unity of purpose, dedication to the gospel and dependence upon the Holy Spirit.

The people of Skye Bible Church stand firmly on the belief that Jesus Christ is as alive and relevant today as He ever has been and invite you to join them in that experience.
