Covenant of Clergy Sexual Ethics

This covenant calls Baptist ministers to commit publicly to God and the congregations they serve to be faithful to the biblical sexual ethic of fidelity in marriage and celibacy in singleness. Because sexual integrity is foundational to Christian life and ministry, we encourage ministers and congregations to discuss this or similar ethical covenants in the context of the theological foundations and definitions expressed, and we urge ministers to sign and adhere to a covenant of sexual ethics. We suggest that ministers keep signed covenants with copies given to church officers.
