    • Jesus is and will always be the main focus of The ClubHouse. Please keep this in mind during all of your actions and conversations in The ClubHouse cabins. (Colossians 4:6)
    • Here in The ClubHouse, we are committed to Biblical truth. Any conversation or cabins promoting Word of Faith, the prosperity gospel, or false/heretical teachers or organizations will not be permitted. (1 John 4:1-6)
    • Please be gracious in your conversations. If there is a disagreement or you feel things are getting heated, take some time to pray and cool off before responding.

    Specific Cabin Guidelines

    • If you feel uncomfortable directly responding to a member of your cabin, or if you need assistance in addressing an issue biblically, please reach out to Miss Grunecker via private message for help.
    • Establishing a cabin is a responsibility-- please remember that in addition to representing yourself, you are also representing Christ to this community. 

    Starting a Book Club In Your Cabin

    So you want to start a book club or Bible study in your cabin… that’s great! As you know, we are all about promoting biblical truth here in The ClubHouse, and we want to steer clear of anything or anyone that compromises God’s Word. Our desire is to think biblically about who we allow to teach and have influence over us.

    To that end, we encourage you to do your due diligence and exercise discernment when choosing a book or study. Here are some steps you can take:

    1. Pray that God will give you wisdom and discernment as you begin the process of researching your chosen book.
    2. Consider whether the author is merely a popular motivational speaker or if they are a true teacher of God’s truth.
    3. Read the endorsements on the book! If the people telling you that the book is awesome are not known to be reliable teachers or speakers, this may not be the right book for your cabin.
    4. Check Michelle Lesley’s website. She has done a ton of research and compiled some helpful lists of teachers that she recommends (here), and also the ones she suggests you stay away from (here).
    5. Take a peek in the Dead Theologians Society cabin for information about theologically sound teachers who are now with Jesus.
    6. Before making your final decision, please send a private message to Miss Grunecker for approval. Include information about the research you have done about your chosen book.
    7. Lastly, be willing to discontinue your cabin’s study of a book if it isn’t sitting right with you. There is no need to push through a book that doesn’t line up with the Bible. Remember, you asked God for discernment in this process!

    Cabin Participation

    • There is no limit to the number of cabins you can join, but please be sure to be an active participant in all cabins in which you are a member. If you change your mind about being a member of a cabin, you can click the "leave cabin" button at any time.
    • Each cabin's activity will be evaluated at the end of the season. If a cabin is found to be inactive, the owner will be notified two weeks prior to the end of the season with a reminder to show activity (or intent to continue with the cabin).
    • At the end of the seasons cabins may be deleted for the following reasons:
      • Low/no activity in the cabin
      • Cabin owner wishes to relinquish cabin ownership
      • Cabin topic becomes obsolete (i.e. it was seasonally specific)
      • Cabin activity doesn't comply with The First Love Club/The ClubHouse guidelines
    • If a cabin is deleted, you are welcome to (re)create a new one in the next season. You may use the same name and may invite the same people if desired.

    ** The First Love Club reserves the right to remove members from this forum or any cabins for violation of these rules. **
