Nimbus Community Norms

“Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.” (Galatians 6:2)

When Christians come together in community to lift one another up in prayer, we get a clearer understanding of God, of ourselves, and of others. But this is not something to take lightly. This gift also comes with responsibility to respect and protect both others and ourselves.

Empowerment Through Authenticity

Authenticity is at the heart of a healthy spiritual life. Prayer that is forced or fake breaks down the very fabric of community. Everyone’s spiritual journey is different, making it essential to be open and honest when connecting through prayer. In order for the Nimbus community to be effective, it must be genuine. Because of this, we ask our partners to share the truth of their individual stories. This will help the Nimbus team hold users accountable for their actions and further strengthens the community for all of us.

A Community of Respect

Respect is vital for honest community to exist. Prayer is not a weapon we use to manipulate others into seeing the world as we see it. Rather, prayer is a means by which we humble ourselves to God and we ask to tune our hearts to God’s will. Once we let go of our own agendas, we are able to show the grace and mercy that we have received from God to others who are also created in God’s image.

What we think respect looks like in the Nimbus community:

Respectful language toward God and others. Name-calling and insults are not welcome in this community.
Avoid over-sharing. Nimbus is a prayer community, but an online forum cannot replace clinical or pastoral counseling. Sometimes life circumstances wound us deeply. Traumatic information cannot be disclosed in a healthy way using an online format such as Nimbus for several reasons:
1. Trauma can make us vulnerable to other predators. Unfortunately, there are people in our world who use the pain of others to manipulate them and cause intentional harm. These individuals are called perpetrators, and the Internet is an ideal place for them to find victims. We strongly discourage the sharing of personal information regarding abuse, trauma, and intense emotional distress because that information could fall into the hands of someone looking to cause harm to others.
2. Sharing trauma stories inappropriately can re-traumatize us. Sometimes victims who have survived traumatic events need to process their story with another person. However, we sometimes try and process our stories before we are emotionally ready to do so in a healthy manner. In our attempt to gain power over the event, we sometimes end up causing more harm to ourselves. Processing trauma needs to take place in a safe environment guided by a trained individual such as a counselor or pastor.
3. Sharing trauma stories inappropriately can traumatize others. Emergency personnel and mental health providers often talk about something called secondhand trauma. This occurs when we hear a story of trauma from someone else and it is so difficult to process that we end up becoming traumatized by their story. Professionals are trained to know how to deal with such situations, but the general public is not. Because we value every Nimbus prayer partner, we feel an obligation to protect others who may not be able to handle reading stories of trauma.
Remember our common goal.
1. We are not here to debate theology, culture, or politics. We are here to focus on the thing that binds us together: prayer.
2. If you have an idea or opinion that significantly differs from the majority of our online community, we ask that you use language that is gracious and respectful to communicate your idea. But also keep in mind that this forum is focused on our common communication with God. There are other online outlets that are more appropriate for direct conversation with others.

An Intentional Community of Care

“Where there is no guidance, the people fall, but in an abundance of counselors there is safety.” (Proverbs 11:14)

In addition to authenticity and respect, we also believe that safety is a requirement for healthy community to exist. Because of this, we take all risk issues seriously. If your prayer contains language that suggests you are suicidal, homicidal, or that you are being physically, sexually, or emotionally abused, some of or all of the following steps may be taken:

Your post will be removed from public view on the Nimbus site.
Our Nimbus team will contact you directly, if possible, to provide a list of referral options.
If any identifying information is provided, we will turn this information over to the proper authorities including the Nimbus legal team, local and/or federal officials.

If your prayer post suggests that you are responsible for physical abuse, sexual abuse, or bullying behavior, similar steps may also be taken. In the event that Nimbus removes a post or prayer, we will make every effort to communicate with the user in order to offer a response to what we deem inappropriate or unsafe.

We believe that it is our responsibility at Nimbus to take a proactive approach to building healthy community. If we see that certain individuals in our community have consistent difficulty in maintaining the community norms listed above, we reserve the right to prevent your further participation in this community.
