BOUNDARIES: What You Can Do and What You Can’t Do

Establishing clear boundaries protects the integrity, unity, and spiritual order of SDM. Every leader, minister, director, and worker operates within a framework that ensures consistency, accountability, and excellence across all SDM platforms.

WHY THESE BOUNDARIES MATTER

• To Protect SDM’s Integrity
• A clear structure ensures unity, consistency, and credibility.
• To Protect You as a Minister

Boundaries guard you from unnecessary conflicts, misunderstandings, or misrepresentation.

To Ensure Accountability & Spiritual Order

Every ministry work must flow through recognised spiritual covering.

To Preserve the SDM Vision

SDM exists to affirm, equip, and confirm ministers while upholding excellence.

CONCLUSION

These boundaries are not restrictions—they are protective guidelines that help every believer, worker, and minister serve effectively within SDM. As long as you remain within your authorised function, you carry full SDM backing, spiritual covering, and leadership support.
