As Christians, we believe all people are wholly and unconditionally made in the image of God (Genesis 1), known and “knit together” by God (Psalm 139), and loved by God (John 3). Scripture reveals that there is a high standard for how we treat one another: if you have all of the power in the world, and many other virtues besides, “but do not have love, then [you] are nothing” (1 Cor. 13).
YECA recognizes the Imago Dei in every person and welcomes the participation of all from across the wide diversity of the evangelical church. Therefore, YECA will not tolerate those who are unable to maintain a loving, respectful relationship with others, and we have a zero tolerance policy on harassment and discrimination related to a person’s race, color, ethnicity, national origin, disability, medical condition, age, sex, sexual orientation, relationship status, and/or gender identity and expression.
