Our website is built using Wix and may include features such as social media links, online groups, membership areas, user profiles, Bible studies, blog posts, videos, comments, forms, event registrations, prayer requests, newsletters, and other digital tools.

​

2. Use of the Website

​

We reserve the right to remove content, suspend accounts, restrict access, or block users when we believe these Terms have been violated or when action is necessary to protect the safety, integrity, and mission of the community.

​

3. Membership, Profiles, Groups, and Community Features

​

The website may allow users to create profiles, join groups, interact with posts, participate in Bible studies, comment, message, register for events, submit prayer requests, or engage with other community features.

​

By using these features, you understand and agree that:

• You are responsible for the information you provide.

• You should not share private, sensitive, confidential, or unsafe personal information publicly.

• You should use wisdom when communicating with people online.

• You should not post anything that violates another person’s privacy, safety, dignity, or rights.

• Group participation does not create a professional counseling, pastoral counseling, medical, legal, financial, or emergency-response relationship.

• We may moderate, edit, hide, delete, or restrict content when needed.

​

We want Boundless Online Church to be a place of grace, truth, encouragement, and spiritual growth. We ask every user to treat others with patience, kindness, humility, and respect.

​

4. Bible Studies, Teaching, Articles, Videos, and Other Content

​

We make every effort to provide accurate, thoughtful, prayerful, and helpful information. However, we are human, and no person, website, ministry, writer, volunteer, teacher, editor, or contributor is perfect.

​

The content on this website may include Bible studies, devotionals, articles, videos, podcasts, sermons, opinions, educational material, group discussions, comments, and user-submitted content. This content is provided for general faith-based, educational, devotional, and informational purposes.

​

You agree that:

• You are responsible for reading, studying, praying, researching, and verifying information for yourself.

• You should compare teaching and information with Scripture, trusted pastoral leadership, reputable sources, and your own careful study.

• We do not guarantee that every statement, statistic, quote, article, comment, post, user submission, or piece of information on the website is complete, current, error-free, or perfectly accurate.

• We are not responsible for decisions you make based on information found on the website.

• We are not liable for inaccurate, outdated, incomplete, misunderstood, misapplied, or user-submitted information to the fullest extent permitted by law.

​

Our heart is to be faithful, helpful, and accurate. Still, users are expected to seek wisdom, verify information, and take responsibility for how they use what they read, watch, hear, or discuss.

​

5. Corrections and Accuracy

​

If you believe something on the website is incorrect, outdated, incomplete, misleading, or needs to be reviewed, please contact us.

​

Correction requests may be emailed to:

fasocial@famemphis.net

​

Please include:

• The page, post, video, group, or section where the issue appears.

• A clear explanation of the concern.

• Any source, reference, documentation, or correction you believe should be considered.

• Your name and contact information if you want a reply.

​

We will make a reasonable effort to review correction requests, but we do not guarantee that every request will result in a change, removal, response, or update. We reserve the right to determine whether content should be corrected, edited, clarified, removed, or left unchanged.

​

6. User-Submitted Content

​

If you post, upload, submit, message, comment, share, or provide content through the website, including text, photos, videos, prayer requests, comments, profile information, group posts, testimonies, or other materials, you are responsible for that content.

​

By submitting content, you confirm that:

• You have the right to share it.

• It does not violate copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, or other rights.

• It is not unlawful, abusive, deceptive, harmful, or inappropriate.

• It does not contain confidential information you are not authorized to share.

​

By submitting content to the website, you grant Boundless Online Church permission to display, store, moderate, share, reproduce, edit, and use that content as reasonably necessary to operate the website, manage community features, promote ministry activity, respond to requests, and support the mission of the ministry.

​

We are not required to publish, keep, or display user-submitted content. We may remove or restrict content at any time.

​

7. Prayer Requests and Personal Information

​

Users may have the opportunity to submit prayer requests, testimonies, comments, questions, or personal information through forms, groups, messages, or other website features.

​

Please use wisdom when sharing personal information. Do not publicly post sensitive information such as medical records, addresses, financial information, passwords, private family matters, legal issues, or anything you do not want others to see.

​

If you submit a prayer request or personal story, you understand that it may be seen by ministry staff, volunteers, group leaders, or others involved in prayer and care. We will make reasonable efforts to handle prayer requests with care and respect, but online communication always carries some risk.

​

8. Not an Emergency Service

 

Boundless Online Church is not an emergency service, crisis hotline, medical provider, mental health provider, law enforcement agency, or emergency response organization.

​

If you are in immediate danger, thinking of harming yourself or someone else, experiencing a medical emergency, or facing a crisis requiring urgent help, call 911 or contact local emergency services immediately.

​

Prayer, encouragement, Bible study, and online community can be meaningful sources of support, but they are not substitutes for emergency care, licensed medical treatment, professional mental health care, legal advice, or other qualified professional help.

​

9. Pastoral, Spiritual, and Educational Content

​

• Mental health counseling.

• Legal advice.

• Financial advice.

• Professional therapy.

• A guarantee of personal, spiritual, emotional, relational, or financial outcome.

​

Users are encouraged to seek help from qualified professionals, pastors, counselors, doctors, attorneys, or other appropriate advisors when needed.
