IV. Leadership with Character
Let's be exemplary

There are certain areas of character development that we ask all of us as leaders to agree with and to be on the same page about. If you are no or unsure about any of these, that doesn't automatically disqualify you as long as you are open to talking about it. Staff would love to have a conversation with you and walk alongside you. 

As a leader, we ask you to be committed to avoiding substance use/abuse in the following ways:

"I will commit to avoiding _____"

Underage drinking *
Getting drunk, "blacked out", etc. *
Illegal drug use *
Use of marijuana, outside of medicinal use as prescribed by a doctor *
If "no" or "unsure" to any of the above, can you tell us a little more about that?

As a leader, we ask you to be committed to seeking sexual integrity and health in the following ways:


"I will commit to refraining from: ________" 

Dating a non-Christian (context dependent) *
Being sexually active outside the context of marriage *

If "no" or "unsure" to any of the above, please tell us a little more about that. Staff would love to process these topics further with you.
V. Theological Viewpoints
We understand there is a large breadth of different viewpoints that currently exist in our churches today about various things. As a parachurch ministry, we recognize the complexity of this spectrum. If you have any questions or concerns about the following, please reach out to a staff worker.
InterVarsity upholds women at all levels of ministry leadership. *
If you are unsure or have questions, could you tell us a little more about that? We would love to process this with you.
InterVarsity acknowledges that sexual orientation is a complex topic. Please feel free to contact us to have a continued dialogue about this.
InterVarsity's Doctrinal Basis

We believe in:
The only true God, the almighty Creator of all things,
existing eternally in three persons
Father; Son; and Holy Spirit; full of love and glory.

The unique divine inspiration,
entire trustworthiness,
and authority of the Bible.

The value and dignity of all people:
created in God’s image to live in love and holiness,
but alienated from God and each other because of our sin and guilt,
and justly subject to God’s wrath.

Jesus Christ, fully human and fully divine,
who lived as a perfect example,
who assumed the judgment due sinners by dying in our place,
and who was bodily raised from the dead and ascended as Savior and Lord.

Justification by God’s grace to all who repent
and put their faith in Jesus Christ alone for salvation.

The indwelling presence and transforming power of the Holy Spirit,
who gives to all believers a new life and a new calling to obedient service.

The unity of all believers in Jesus Christ,
manifest in worshiping and witnessing churches
making disciples throughout the world.

The victorious reign and future personal return of Jesus Christ,
who will judge all people with justice and mercy,
giving over the unrepentant to eternal condemnation
but receiving the redeemed into eternal life.
To God be glory forever.

In an effort to ensure unity within our leadership team, InterVarsity at UCSD requires all leaders to believe in our national Doctrinal Basis. 
Do you believe in and agree to this basis of faith?
