- Pastors must have prayerfully sought the Lord and believe that God has led them to be Sovereignly joined in covenant relationship to Bishop Knox for biblical accountability and submits to him as their spiritual covering. We believe all ministry flows out of relationship and that the Kingdom of God is built in trust and the strategy of the Kingdom is love.
- Pastors must make known their desire for networking either verbally or by letter.
- Pastors must schedule a conference with Bishop Knox to further dialogue and to hear from God concerning this joining.
- A completed KNCI application must be returned to the Office of Bishop Knox.
- A meeting/conference call with the pastor, eldership, and key leadership to further define the role of KNCI and how it relates to the local church.
- There will be a time of watch care, with biblical accountability, spiritual support, and covering in place, until the setting in of KNCI.
