Membership

Code of Ethics.

Every member of AWSA commits to upholding these principles in their public ministry and private dealings. This is what membership stands for.

  1. 01

    Article One — Honor Christ in word and conduct

    Members shall act with honesty, integrity, and professionalism, and shall operate their writing and speaking ministry — and their personal life — in a way that honors and does not bring shame or reproach to the name of the Lord.

  2. 02

    Article Two — Represent qualifications truthfully

    Members shall accurately represent their qualifications and experience in both oral and written communications. Bios, credentials, results, and platform claims must be true and verifiable.

  3. 03

    Article Three — No plagiarism; honor others' work

    Members shall not engage in plagiarism. Members shall seek permission before using materials originated by others, and shall credit sources fully.

  4. 04

    Pledge — Speak the truth in love

    Members pledge to speak the truth in love, to refrain from gossip and divisive talk, to follow biblical principles for resolution if a member believes another has sinned, and to contact AWSA leadership directly with any complaint or concern.

  5. 05

    Statement of Faith

    Members subscribe to the AWSA Statement of Faith as a condition of membership. (Full text to be added once retrieved from the existing site.)

Articles 1–3 + the pledge are the canonical AWSA text; remaining articles and Statement of Faith pending direct copy from leadership.
