The term Evangelical refers to its commitment to the proclamation of the Gospel and to the authority of Scriptures as being inerrant in the original writings and the only safe and sufficient guide to faith and practice. The term Free refers to its form of church government as being congregational. Evangelical Free Churches depend upon the active participation of lay people in the decisions and directions.
