Marriage and Statements of Faith

I was looking at the website of Middletown Springs Community Church in Vermont where Jared C. Wilson pastors. (If you’ve never looked at his blog, I encourage you to.)

Reviewing their statement of faith, I came across this item:

“We believe that God’s exclusive model for marriage is the uniting of one man and one woman in covenant commitment for a lifetime of godliness and fidelity. It is a unique gift of God, illustrating the union between Christ and His Church. Marriage provides the framework for intimate companionship, sexual expression according to Biblical standards, the means for procreation, and is God’s foundation for the family. (Genesis 1:27-28; 2:18-25; Proverbs 5:15-22; Song of Solomon; Ephesians 5:25-33)”

Does your church include a statement like this is your core beliefs?
