Community guidelines

What we welcome, what we don't, and what happens when lines are crossed.

Gospel Circle exists to be a quiet, kind, generous Christian community. The full guidelines live elsewhere, but the short version:

What we welcome

  • Honest questions, including hard ones
  • Disagreement done with respect
  • Confession and lament
  • Prayer for people you disagree with
  • Sharing struggles, not just victories

What we don't allow

  • Hatred, slurs, harassment, or threats
  • Sexual content of any kind
  • Spam, scams, or promotional bots
  • Doxxing or sharing someone's information without consent
  • Impersonation of pastors, churches, or other users
  • Heretical teaching presented as mainstream

What happens when lines are crossed

Most issues get a warning. Repeated or severe violations get a temporary suspension. The most serious behaviors result in a permanent ban. We err on the side of restoring before punishing — but we will protect the community.
